Elizabeth Fowler
I grew up outside Philadelphia, where I drew, fabricated, painted, and acted out stories my whole childhood. Most nights at family dinner, I’d arrive at the table as a different character! I used a pencil self-portrait as part of my application to Princeton University, where I took so much Art History, it could have been my major. Instead, having been awarded a University Scholar standing, I was able to create my own Independent Concentration in Theatre. I wrote and produced two plays and graduated with highest honors. Thoughts of becoming a playwright and director were put to the side to focus on raising a family. It is now five children and twelve grandkids later! I taught History and Art at an AZ Charter School for twenty years, where I produced many original plays with the students. I am now devoted to being a full-time professional artist of murals, commissioned canvases, and signs. I truly love teaching, and do freelance classes. One of my greatest joys is working on the Board of Rim Country Artists.
I am grateful to have art as a way of giving. I see and feel beauty everywhere, and being a maker of things lets me share that.

Murals & Commissioned Work
Over the years, I have worked solo and with other tremendous local artists to bring life to the blank interior and exterior spaces in local businesses, schools, historic buildings, and other areas that can become a canvas. I would love to help you bring life to your location as well. Don’t hesitate to reach out for a free consultation!
Parties & Events
I love to teach and watch others find their creativity! Art brings people together and provides an avenue for building and strengthening relationships. I would be honored to come in and create a unique, artistic experience for your gathering.
