Elizabeth Duffy
Elizabeth will rise to the challenge of new ideas in relation to her artwork. Elizabeth has a strong sense of colour and the juxtaposition between the placement of colours. This inate sense for colour enhances her patterning skills, producing an almost patchwork quality to her work
Elizabeth's cerebral palsey does not hinder her ability to produce high quality pieces of artwork. Surrounding herself with a menagerie of animals, Elizabeth represents a senses of chaotic calmness in her artwork, this is very evident in the placement of Elizabeth's images. Elizabeth has been working with Monte Lupo since 2000.
