One of the little trinkets that catch my eye and beckon me to paint. A tiny copper travel keepsake of my aunts.
As long as I can remember, I’ve been drawn to greens, especially verdigris. Those blueish green patinas formed on coppers after exposure to the elements of air and water are so very charismatic, as is the elegant prancing figurine. Producing ever changing subtle blueish green combinations, verdigirs reminds us that change is the only constant.
This began as a sketching activity together to help my friend cope with the relentless rain we were experiencing in late February 2022. As the effects of devastating floods continued, with a partly finished cabin and little room to paint, electricity still out, painting often helped during that time of great upheaval on this little patch of paradise.

Liz Wilson Art Work acknowledges the traditional people as custodians and knowledge holders of the traditional lands we travel, create, and learn on, throughout the continent that has been colonially known as Australia.
We pay deepest respects to all Custodians of Country, of whom these lands belong. Especially the land and people of Gamilaraay where Liz was born, and Wiradjuri where Liz raised her children and the local Widgabul Wia-bul people of Bundjalung Nation, where Liz now lives and paints.
Liz Wilson Art Work acknowledges Aboriginal people as the first artists and storytellers on this continent and pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging. Sovereignty was never ceded.
