Elizabeth's passion is plein air painting.  She began painting in Plein air in 1996 and shortly thereafter she began her studies at the University of Windsor where she received her BFA in 2000.  From 2000 to 2009 she volunteered for the non profit organization, Windsor Printmakers' Forum.  In 2009 she founded the Windsor & Essex County Plein Air Artists group.  She organizes weekly plein air events year round, and participates in Plein Air Festivals in the U.S.A and Canada.
