Elizabeth is a Canadian print and pattern designer living in sunny Portugal. Her signature floral and geometric designs are infused with heart and soul.  They're made with the intention of spreading beauty and amplifying joy. 

Her work is inspired by the world around her, both from her travels as well as her mindful approach to everyday life — the juxtaposed colors of Lisbon, puffy clouds against a soft sky, the way seaweed moves under water. Beauty is everywhere. 

In addition to her work as an artist, Elizabeth is also a big believer in the power of creativity and play in all aspects of life, which she shares through her online classes and her creative retreats around Europe.
