Hello! My name is Liz Coffey, and you can see some of my
past artwork here: www.lizcoffeyart.com
(I’ll be updating this website soon).
While my artwork over the last few years has been largely of symbolic abstractions, I plan to spend 2016 looking outward again at real things! I will be painting still
lifes and en plein air with the goal of loosening myself up and reminding
myself how to look again.
For a while, these artworks will be painted primarily in
gouache, with a single painting created every day. I purchased my first set of
gouache paints in mid-December and have been having a great time exploring this
new medium! Here are a couple of my paintings from December:

In case there are any other newcomers to gouache visiting my
blog, I’ll be sharing some of the nuts-and-bolts of the color palettes and
different surfaces I’ll be using along the way. I probably won't be able to help but have a post about my favorite podcasts, too.
Please feel free to share with
me any suggestions for artists to look at, materials to use, or podcasts to
listen to!
