About Elizabeth

I launched this practice in 2015 to share the tools I was designing and using in my own work. As an artist, I wanted tools that were both functional and inspiring—something that didn’t exist in mass production. Over many years of traveling throughout Asia, I developed a deep respect for the traditional tools and materials used in Chinese and Japanese painting. Time spent in Taiwan, Japan, Thailand, and China shaped how I think about rhythm, brushwork, and the role of the tool in artistic expression.

My Journey

  • In 2015 I launched Elizabeth Schowachert Art, a platform that allows me to collaborate with other artists.
  • My experiences in Asia, mainly Taiwan, gave me an admiration for the culture, its environment, and its citizens.
  • In that region, the tools and materials used by traditional Chinese painting and Sumie-style painting attracted my attention.
  • I found handmade paper and brushes particularly interesting.

My online Art Gallery also offers my original artwork, encaustic paintings, encaustic monotype, and mixed media scrolls.
