Elizabeth is an artist of Scottish, Irish, Mexcian and Filipino descent and her work is as bold and vibrant as the cultures that have filled her life. She creates her work on a grand scale – large paintings of splendid blossoms and botanicals, interwoven with organic patterns that pay tribute to the glory of nature… all culminating in a kaleidoscope of color. But do not confuse her portrayal of flowers – a well-known and well-visited subject matter – as mundane and expected. Elizabeth’s blooms fill a room with all their colorful glory and brilliance. They are whimsical, breath-taking, and delicious … they make you love them.
Elizabeth grew up in a military family moving often. Her father retired in San Antonio, Texas where she remained for many years. She studied fine arts at Texas State University in San Marcos, Texas. She later married into a military family – moving often once more – and eventually returned to San Antonio, Texas where she now resides. Elizabeth has exhibited her work in New York, Florida, Arizona and California. She currently shows her work in Texas and New Mexico. You can view more of her art on Facebook and Instagram!
“I breathe LIFE into my paintings with devotion & passion – they in turn, most surely give my LIFE meaning & existence.” – Elizabeth Elequin
When you take a flower in your hand & really look at it, it’s your world for the moment.” – Georgia O’Keeffe
