<span class="text"><font color="#666666" class="text"> <p>Elizabeth Wolf is an illustrator and artist. Liz began her career at the National <br /> Geographic Society in Washington, DC, as a map designer. She is now most <br /> well known for her compelling and engaging illustrations and artwork for regional <br /> and national theatre companies, film and music festivals, children’s books, <br /> magazines, newspaper editorials, and a wide range of commercial clients. As a <br /> resident of Boise, Idaho, Liz has been awarded several prestigious commissions <br /> for public art projects, including her highly acclaimed terrazzo floor at the Boise<br /> Airport. In 2004, she received the Governor’s Award in the Arts, acknowledging <br /> her contributions to the arts in Idaho.</p> <p>Liz began WolfWare TableWare as a way to share her love of drawing in a more<br /> personal way. The work is decorative and figurative; often based on historical<br /> costume, portraiture, nature, and architectural embellishment. The inspiration<br /> comes from Liz’s interest in historical ornamentation and decoration— a cave<br /> painting at Lascaux, a wall painting in an Egyptian tomb, a figure or design on a<br /> Greek vase, a mosaic on a floor or wall, a ceiling mural in a cathedral, a Persian<br /> rug, or an Art Deco figure on the side of a building. Her goal as an artist to make<br /> something ordinary— a plate, a wall, a floor, a sign, a book— become<br /> something extraordinary. </p> <p>Elizabeth Wolf was profiled in the 2008 Arts issue of <em>Big Sky Journal.</em> Click on<br /> this link to read the article: <a href="/users/ElizabethWolf8129/BigSky(1).pdf"><u><em>Big Sky</em></u></a><u><em> </em></u></p> <p> </p> <p><br /> <br /> <br /> </p></font></span><br> <h1> elizabeth wolf, liz wolf, artist, ceramic artist, hand painted pottery, custom unique ceramic plates, tableware, tabletop, one of a kind, art for the table, wolfware, tablescape, elizabeth wolf illustrator, art for the table</h1>
