Elizabeth Langreiter

Elizabeth participated in her first group exhibition at the Workshop Arts Centre and Ewart Gallery Annual Art Fair on 28 June 2009. Elizabeth sold 9 paintings on the day and received 4 commissions. Since this day she has sold many paintings including selling 12 paintings to one very keen collector. On Sunday 13 February 2011 Elizabeth had the opening to her first solo exhibition at the Lane Cove Music and Cultural Centre.

It all began with Elizabeth’s first artistic success at the age of 6 when she won 50cents in a Sun Herald Paint a Poster competition. It was therefore surprising she did not feel the desire to pick up another paint brush for many many years. In the ensuing years of school, travel and a career in hotel management and human resources, she dabbled in the field of fashion and textiles.

Elizabeth is now happily married and the mother of 2 small beautiful boys and after a long hiatus Elizabeth has been making up for lost time. She has painted lots of paintings in the last 2 years and has finally found her “thing” – the thing that she loves doing. Elizabeth comes from an artistic family with her father enjoying painting ever since she can remember and her mother being keen illustrator. Her father was always encouraging Elizabeth to start painting but she always was too busy doing other things. Her brother is a well known successful northern beaches artist who has won art competitions and sold many paintings.
One rainy day in July 2008 Elizabeth was racking her brain as to what to give her husband for his birthday and decided on the spot to do a painting for him. She went out bought a huge canvas and the paint and produced a painting which was extremely well received. She then produced a painting for her father as an 80th birthday present who was amazed and very complimentary with his present. He encouraged her to keep painting.
Elizabeth realized how much she enjoyed the whole process that she kept experimenting and trying new subjects. She started reading art books and studying the works of other artists and learning as much as she could – often through trial and error.
Elizabeth works with acrylic paints and experiments with different styles. She loves working with colour and most of her paintings are bright and happy. She has produced many paintings of flowers. She enjoys painting figures in a naive art style with a humorous approach. Elizabeth is always painting (when she has time) and is always thinking of the next one whilst putting the final touches on the last one.
