About
Lizzie Butler
Lizzie Butler's love of landscapes and big open skies began as a child in the wide open fields of Lincolnshire. Artist parents - an architect father, who etched at every opportunity, and fashion designer & colourist mother - helped nurture the painter's work.
Grounded in figurative landscape oil painting and life drawing, Lizzie Butler's work today is expressive and semi-abstract. She often begins her landscape pieces 'en plein air', then moves to her London studio, sometimes working from photographs taken in the landscape. Butler's depth of field and linear hand convey light, silence and energy with expressive hues and tones. The results are an immersive fusion of land, water and open sky.
Although working primarily in oil, Lizzie also enjoys the physicality of exploring etching with zinc and steel plates to create intaglio prints.
Lizzie Butler has exhibited widely in the UK and internationally. Butler’s work can be found in collections in America, New Zealand, Hong Kong, the UK and across Europe, with customers returning to buy further pieces and place commissions.
If you have an idea you would like to discuss or a favourite sky view you would like as an artwork for your home, please get in touch. Lizzie has completed many commissions in various sizes.
