About Elizabeth

 

 

🧭 My Journey

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.

 The handmade brushes and papers I encountered—particularly in the context of Sumi-e and calligraphy—sparked a lifelong fascination with intentional mark-making. That influence remains at the heart of everything I make.

 

🛠️ A Contemporary Approach to Traditional Tools

While my roots are in brushmaking, I also design encaustic tools, cold wax blades, and reductive mark-making instruments for mixed media artists. Each item is tested in my own studio to ensure performance, balance, and creative potential.

Whether you're working in ink, wax, or acrylic, I hope these tools inspire you to explore, experiment, and push your practice forward.
