About
Elizabeth Ranger (b. 1984), uses watercolour, gouache and pencil to create intricate, surreal paintings that explore ideas of fluidity, mortality and the spirit. Inspired by the symbolists and turn of the century illustrators, they use abstractions, fantastical elements, organic textures, and vibrant colours to bring their works to life.
Born in Ottawa and trained in Montreal, she currently lives in Halifax with her two young kids and two old cats.
