Botanical and Scientific Art

Art & Music reception featuring the art of Elizabeth Perry and the music of The JB Trio. Open to all.

Elizabeth Perry has been drawing and painting for over 50 years. She studied couture fashion and illustration in design school, has a Bachelor of Architecture degree, and a Certificate in Botanical Illustration from the New York Botanical Garden.  She is influenced by such artists as Rory McEwen, Asuka Hishiki, Piet Mondrian, and Charles Rennie Mackintosh to name a few. Her illustrations have sold in Europe and throughout the United States, and has been published in various art magazines and periodicals. Her many years of detailed observation through her illustrations has created a unique appreciation for beauty in plants (and people) as they pass their prime. 
Elizabeth lives and works in Maplewood.  She is married with a 15 year old son who has, on occasion, also taken an interest in art.  

The mediums used in these works include watercolor, graphite, sepia pencil and colored pencil.
