101. Painting Australian Botanicals with Lizzie Alsop
Manage episode 327164026 series 2900771
In today’s episode I have a lovely interview with fellow Aussie artist Lizzie Alsop. Lizzie is a full time contemporary artist who works from her home studio on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria. She’s been creative all her life and launched into her full time art career after a move to the coast fourteen years ago.
Her artwork is a joyful and colorful mix of abstract and realism. Lizzie loves to create and express the wonder of her natural environment with abstract layers of geometric shapes and botanicals which are mainly Australian Natives. Much of her inspiration comes from spending time walking the coastal tracks, and ocean swimming close to her home.
Lizzie and I had a great chat about what it’s like to be an artist located in the country and coming from a country background. We talk through her process of finding her second career as a professional artist and navigating the way to success without a degree in art.
With lots of practical insights to how Lizzie has approached collaborations, created prints, tea-towels and also exhibited in a number of solo and group shows, this interview contains a wealth of information for emerging artists. I really hope you enjoy the episode.
In this episode, we talked about:
- Lizzie shared her journey on how she became an artist and how it evolved over the years
- Lizzie on how she became a professional without that training and validation
- How living in a rural environment affected Lizzie’s art practice
- Using digital social media platforms for selling artworks
- How Lizzie balances her life as a mom of 3 and as an artist
- Lizzie’s studio space
- Lizzie’s upcoming exhibition: Where The Earth Meets The Sea
