Elizabeth Nelson Exhibit in Orlando Area

I am in love with the vibrant paper collages created by Elizabeth St. Hilaire Nelson!  Just take a look at these pieces, (even though my photography doesn’t begin to do them justice:)

Elizabeth currently has a solo show, called Exquisite Harmony, on display
at the Maitland Art Center, near Orlando.  I was very fortunate to attend
her recent gallery talk there.  Her use of color and texture is breath taking!

Elizabeth is shown below, standing near
one of  her favorite pieces.

The photo below shows the right shoulder of the piece above.  VERY cool lace!

The theme of this exhibit is music, including a composition called “The Carnival of the Animals.”  Therefore, there are lots of animal pieces.  This donkey was my favorite.  He seemed to have a very lazy and gentle gaze.

I hope you’ll click on some of the images above, so you’ll get  a
better view of them.

Elizabeth’s exhibit will be up through October 24th.  If you’re near Orlando, I think you’d enjoy it immensely.  And if you can’t see her work in person, be sure to check it out on her website.

P.S. I own one of Elizabeth’s collages.  You can see it here.
