Hello and welcome to my WordPress page.
My name is Elizabeth and I am an Illustration graduate who loves drawing, painting, model-making and typography. I’m at my happiest when creating something I can get lost in.
My main aim with this blog is to document my Drawing A Day project for 2012 (and beyond), and to try to further improve and develop my creative skills in the process.
I’d love to hear all thoughts and feedback on what I produce in the course of this blog – please feel free to post comments or, if you prefer, e-mail me at creative.liz@hotmail.co.uk , or follow me on Twitter at @Creative_Liz
Hi Liz, I have been completely captivated by your drawings and thoughts. Well done for starting this. I would like to get Peter a drawing of a dragon for his birthday as he is the big 60 in July and was born in the year of the dragon and this year is also the year of the dragon. Perhaps we can talk about a commission?
Once again well done. regards Bridget.
Hello Bridget! It’s lovely to hear from you, thank you for your message – it’s good to have you on board. I’d definitely be interested in designing a dragon for Peter’s birthday, if you like I’ll email you at the weekend so we can discuss things in more depth. Liz
Hi Elizabeth, Its Roy & Angela in Texas. Your mother sent us the link so we could see some of what you are up to. I am extremely impressed with your talent. I also love the thought of a daily drawing. I’m sure it is very challenging to come up with a subject, but I do like that anything can be the subject. I am also inclined to agree with you that your cartoon reditions are brillant. Please keep up your very talented work. All the best, please write soon. Angela & Roy Campbell
Hey guys, great to hear from you – glad you like the blog! It was pretty daunting at first to set out with one drawing a day, but it’s something I’ve been wanting to do for a while and now I’m into the swing of things it’s proving to be really rewarding. I’ll email you to tell you more of what’s going on with this and more. Liz
Hi Liz,

Hello Elizabeth,
Great work really, especially the work on the last posts.
I also love illustrations, drawing, painting and typography, I can’t believe it I found someone else like me!
Unfortunately I don’t have time to practice my skills, so I resume to picking out insanely great illustrations done by others, while giving them full credit for their work.
However I did draw some illustrations, which I am asking you kindly to review and to discover more of my teams great work, for more inspiration on great posts such as the ones you have.
Don’t ever give up your work and this blog, we need it !
Kindest regards,
Hey Nicholas, thank you, I really appreciate your coming by and enjoying the blog, and for your encouragement. I’ve started following Coffebooksong Studios today and I’m looking forward to finding out more about your team and the work you’re all doing!
Best wishes, Liz
Lovely to see so much work – inspires me to do more! (Don’t think I could manage one a day though!) Nice variety in style etc, it’s good to keep that range in illustration, I can’t narrow down to one style so I guess I am a fan of versatility. Keep it up!
– Anna
