Elizabeth grew up on the Olympia Peninsula
in the heart of the evergreen forests.
She attributes her early artistic development to the
encouragement of her parents as she developed interests in
creative and scientific projects as well as subjects ranging
from Middle Eastern dance, theatre set design, and marine and
fresh water biology.
Over the years, she has worked in acrylic and polymer beads.
Her real passion, however, is in glass and what she calls "the
illusion of perpetual fluidity".
Working for hours using a small gas torch, she has become a
master at the creation of intricate glass beads which may be
grouped or gathered into finished jewelry sets. She has also
perfected a line of beautiful tiny perfume bottles.
She is expanding her artistic talents to include glass painting,
kilnwork and glassblowing.
Elizabeth is currently an active member of the Columbia Gorge
Chapter of the Oregon Glass Guild.
Her works may be seen at the Harvest Festival in Hood River, and
at Artisan's or the Glassworks in White Salmon.
