Elizabeth Neville

Elizabeth studied Fine Art Painting at the University of Wolverhampton and went on to complete a PGCE in teaching Art in 2000. After an 18 year career teaching Art, in 2019 Elizabeth decided to fulfill her lifelong dream and become a full time practicing painter.

During this initial period, she studied with the Florence Academy, which enabled her to return to her roots, focusing on the classical methods of painting, studying the old masters and breaking an image down to it’s simplest form. It was this concept which then lead her on to experiment with deconstruction and abstraction.

Elizabeth’s work now focuses predominantly on the investigation and deconstruction of the human form, resulting in work somewhere between the figurative and abstraction. She works with both oils and acrylics and enjoys playing with the surface quality of the paints to highlight and accentuate the forms that have been created in the abstraction process.
