Listen - St. Jean de Luz (2019) Painting by Elizabeth Williams

Elizabeth Williams is a contemporary British painter based in Spain. After training at the City Lit in Holborn, London for a Fine Art degree, she paints in oils focusing on the on the sea and landscapes. Williams creates abstract expressionist/romantic impressionist oil paintings which reflect the elemental tone of the natural world. By the use of carefree brushstrokes or the palette knife Elizabeth's paintings are inspired by capturing clouds that hug you, rocks on a shore, or a crashing wave from a distant view point or rolling towards a shore line. She paints the weather, sea, light and wind with texture and energy.

Her work is richly textured in parts, combined with smooth blended glazes of brushwork, to suggest depth and movement. Striving to allow the paint to 'have a mind of its own' works well with her looser style, that the confines of realism can oppose, allowing her atmospheric and emotional pieces to come alive. Williams's work is mostly of seascape landscapes combined encompassing the weather in all seasons. Her paintings can vary specifically for commissioned works in large or small spaces and has been sold over the years both internationally and at home in Spain to clients and collectors of her work.
