About the Artist

 

Welcome! My name is Lizzie Dunn and I am a self-taught visual artist currently based out of Midcoast Maine, originating from Northern Maine.

I’ve never been one to enjoy defining myself as an artist. With labels come expectations, and for me, my creative duty lies with intuition and the connection to the greater forces of creativity, I call this the Creative Spirit. To me, creativity is about reciprocity, about showing up from the heart and creating what feeds me and feeding what allows me to create!

As a self-taught artist, my work has become very heart involved, and what I love to create is what I can emotionally relate or connect to. I love painting people, telling stories, embodying their essence, and I have also been increasingly drawn to the natural world and our connection to it. I mostly work with oil paints (my true love), but also enjoy watercolors and drawing, as I believe play is an important part of nourishing creativity!

Painting to me is an act of honoring, a remembering of the magic that exists in our interconnectedness with everything. Thank you for being here!
