Elizabeth Williams' restless energy is reflected
in both her character and her work. Williams
creates dreamlike, highly personal imagery in a
variety of media, including mixed media
constructions, prints, and paintings on canvas,
board, and paper.
This wide range of techniques
shows her willingness and desire to experiment.
Her style is illustrative, graphic, and full of
color, similar in some ways to children's
illustrations, but a bit spookier. Bears,
horses, cats, birds, and animorphic figures
permeate her work. Her images are emotive,
imaginative expressions of her dreams and fantasies.
Like dreams, they evoke a sense of a subconscious
inner meaning. Some are playful and liberating,
and some are mysterious and frightening. Her
portrayal of animal forms and anthropomorphic
beings has a totemic quality that hints at
the emotional connections between mankind
and nature.
