Works by Elizabeth Blue

During February, the Community Center for the Performing Arts proudly displays Works by Elizabeth Blue in the Lobby Art Gallery of the WOW Hall.

Elizabeth Blue is an artist and art educator living in Springfield, Oregon.  Elizabeth studied illustration for seven years in the UK, first in Scotland and then in Cornwall, where she focused on authorial art and visual storytelling.  Elizabeth’s personal work focuses on life's mysteries, often using fairy tale archetypes to give inner feelings form.

On this body of work:

“This body of work is part of an ongoing fascination and exploration of fairy and folk tales, both well known and more obscure.  What strikes me when reading and hearing Fairy Tales is that on the surface we think of them as stories about princesses being rescued, but on closer inspection they resonate with me more as stories of women embarking on self-exploration and discovering their inner resources.  We can think of each part of a fairy tale as a different part of our Selves, and that is something I find very intriguing and comforting.  They are intricately symbolic stories about growing up, becoming more whole, and -- more often that not -- facing life’s darkest shadows. It is this play with the shadow side that most interests me and informs my work.

“The pieces shown here were mostly created using ink and watercolor on watercolor paper, with some pastel, and were all made between 2017-2018.”

The Lobby Arts Gallery is open for viewing during box office hours, noon – 6:00 pm Monday through Friday.
