Liz grew up in the radiant, Eastern Washington desert. At the University of Washington, she enjoyed making prints and having perpetually inky hands until she received her BFA in Printmaking (1984). Over the past decade her inner printmaker has been reborn into the digital age as a graphic designer. The tools have changed; the process remains. But Liz misses having inky hands. |
