Meet Elizabeth
Elizabeth is a multi-medium artist based in Benicia, California. Elizabeth is inspired by her intuition, thoughts, dreams, and a natural creative stream of consciousness that flows the days and months before and during her creative projects. Astrology, Feng Shui, and energy have a big importance on her process, timing and environment in which she works. Elizabeth has been creating for many years but after a trip to Iceland she was inspired to fully express her art with an emphasis on mediums where she can create visual representations of her artistic intuition. With this goal for creation in mind, ceramics has become Elizabeth’s primary medium.
Creative energy is innate in Elizabeth. When it comes to her physical surroundings, she enjoys having beautiful meaningful objects that enhance the energy of a space. With over a decade of experience in Meditation and Clairvoyant training from Berkeley Psychic Institute and Intuitive Way in Walnut Creek, Elizabeth takes the energy within and surrounding us in consideration with her creative process.
Elizabeth is an entrepreneur at heart. Previously Elizabeth owned her own business in the Napa Valley. Since retiring, she has since refocused her entrepreneurial spirit on her artistic endeavors. Alongside a relocation to Benicia, California, Elizabeth’s artwork has blossomed. Throughout her adulthood Elizabeth expressed herself through collaging, beading, and interior decorating. Since her move she has explored even more mediums, such as ceramics, enamel and water color.
Today Elizabeth can be found sharing her unique pieces with a wide variety of audiences. From featuring pieces in local galleries, to sharing her work on social media, Elizabeth is a pillar in her artistic community. Elizabeth’s goal is for anyone who interacts with her art to feel the magic and inspiration in her pieces and that they will ignite, awaken, and inspire you.

When one vessel pauses, another begins…
My first piece wasn’t ready for the next layer, so I followed the nudge to start something new.
This one feels like the beginning of a tall tower—or maybe something else entirely. I rarely have a set plan. I like to let the mystery unfold through the process. ✨

Back in the studio after a long break 🌀and it feels so good to get my hands in clay again. Started a new vessel — not sure what shape it will take yet, but I’m loving the process. Letting it dry a bit before the next layer.✨

✨Birthday Ritual✨
This shoot marked my intention for the year ahead. I pulled the 8 of Wands and Swords—releasing the old stories that told me to silence my creative child.
Here’s to a year of movement, magic, and fierce creative freedom. 🐚🌊. Captured 📸by the magical @jenniferlothrigel

Another sacred trip around the sun 🌞🌀
Giving deep thanks for the journeys within and without—the soul growth, the creative portals, the moments of stillness and wonder.
This year, I walk with intention—creating from the heart, honoring the Earth, and weaving beauty with my beloved, our guardian kitty Marigold, and soul family.
I trust the unfolding. I welcome the mystery. I’m open to grace.
The path ahead glows with possibility 🌿✨

✨ A week in the mossy heart of Olympic National Park. A week of quiet listening, deep remembering, and creative exploration.
As my birthday approaches—just days from the sun returning to where it was when I was born—I feel renewed. Grateful. Rooted.
⠀
I spent this time in stillness and movement, with my love by my side, learning the art of self-portraiture in a place where everything felt alive. Where the forest held space for questions I’ve carried:
What do I truly want to create?
How do I want to live this one wild life?
⠀
This is the beginning of something.
And it’s just for me. 🌿🔥📷

Day 4 on a private photography tour through Olympic National Park 🌲📸
Ruby Beach took my breath away — pure magic. ✨
A crow greeted me in the parking lot like a little omen of wonder 🐦⬛
Feeling grateful, inspired, and in awe of this wild, beautiful corner of the world.
Huge thank you to @photorectoby for showing us these incredible places and sharing so much knowledge along the way! 🙏

✨🌿 Summer Solstice Magic 🌿✨
Spending the longest day of the year among the ancient giants of Olympic National Park has been pure enchantment. I felt completely at home nestled into the arms of this majestic bay leaf maple, embraced by moss, light, and the deep wisdom of the forest.
This photography tour with @photorectoby has been beyond inspiring—I’m learning so much and feeling creatively reborn. Grateful for these sacred moments, the power of nature, and the magic of the lens.

First day at Olympic National Park 🌲✨
We arrived at Hurricane Ridge just before sunset, and as we were walking out, I felt myself pulled toward the mist. The clouds wrapped around the mountains like a secret being whispered by the forest. So moody, mysterious, and deeply moving. A place that makes you slow down and just feel.

Vessel Series // Portal to the Inner Waters 💧
This piece is a reflection of the deeper waters within — a vessel that holds the sacred unknown. As I pour, a veil of water becomes a portal… an invitation to step into my own unfolding. Creativity, transformation, and truth rise from the well.
I’ve poured my energy, emotions, and intentions into this water — using it as a vessel for new beginnings. This ritual is a declaration: to break the inherited chains of DNA that no longer serve me, and to choose a new path forward.
Through this offering, I step into the mystery of becoming. 🌊✨

In the quiet dark of the studio,
this vessel—shaped by my hands,
fired in flame, glazed in intention—
holds more than flowers.
It holds a deepening into self.
Dark scabiosa for mystery,
queen anne’s lace for protection,
seed pods for what’s yet to come.
A bloom of story, spirit, and soil.

It’s kiln opening day and I’m in love with how this vessel turned out! 💙 Inspired by deep waters and lotus flowers 🪷 — the glaze is a rich, oceanic blue with magical green shimmer that catches the light just right.

Day 2 of glazing this big beauty! It’s soaking up way more glaze than expected—fingers crossed I’ve got enough to finish. Loving the slow rhythm of this process… patiently waiting for each layer to dry before adding the next. 2 layers done, 3 to go! 💫🖌️

Just opened the kiln and these ceramic heart locks are officially out in the world! 💘✨ Testing new glazes totally paid off — they’ve got that perfect moody shine. Feeling a little Heart of Glass about them… and yes, I’m definitely keeping one! 😍

That magical moment when you open the kiln… and everything is perfect! 🌊 This large ceramic vessel, inspired by the mystery of deep waters and the transformational symbolism of the lotus, came through the fire beautifully. 🔥✨ The next step is glaze, but for now I’m just soaking in the raw beauty of this piece. Sometimes, you just have to pause and admire the magic.
