Artist Comments
Artist Elizabeth Garat presents an impressionist autumnal pond. She works on landscapes from direct observation, inspired by the changing seasons. "This is a pond I visit throughout the year," shares Elizabeth. She captures a quiet mood with the blooming red berry tree attracting flocking birds in November.

About the Artist
Growing up in California and Colorado, Elizabeth spent much of her formative years outdoors. “Exposure to nature early on planted the seed of landscape painting in me,” she says. She enjoyed spending time on her grandfather’s sunny sheep ranch and going to the beach with her grandmother. Her grandmother also would bring her to art galleries in Laguna Beach, where she was first introduced to California Impressionism. Today, Elizabeth lives in Tennessee and enjoys painting both outdoors and in her studio, a detached garage at her home. She has a keen interest in working with color and capturing the effects of light.
