Liz Myhill RSW SWLA is an observational artist whose work spans a wide range of subject matter, gathered through working directly from life. The act of walking, watching and recording numerous facets, whether fleeting or through lengthy study, allow her to gain a connection and sense of place. Although often an end in themselves, these field works are also developed into paintings and printmaking.

Liz studied at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design in Dundee and was elected to both the Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolour (RSW) in 2017 and the Society of Wildlife Artists (SWLA) in 2023. Contact - liz@lizmyhill.com
