About

Lizzie Lemon is a self-taught artist based in the Pacific Northwest of the US. She uses a combination of traditional and modern watercolor techniques to create female portraits and botanicals.

Lizzie paints with watercolors like she’s whispering secrets onto the page—soft, vibrant, and full of feeling. Her work explores the quiet magic that exists between what we see and what we sense. Through delicate brushstrokes and fluid forms, she captures the beautiful tension between the visible world and something more intangible—something like emotion, memory, or spirit.

While her paintings often begin with real-life gestures or glimpses of the human and plant form, Lizzie lets the watercolor lead the way. The result is a joyful dance between clarity and ambiguity, where detail flirts with abstraction. Her figures feel familiar but mysterious, inviting us to wonder about their stories without ever fully knowing them.

Lizzie’s art celebrates the beauty in simplicity: the delicate flow of a petal, how the light glows through a flower. These moments feel unguarded, calm, and quietly powerful. Her work is like a breath of fresh air—encouraging us to slow down, be curious, and savor the soft, everyday poetry of being human.

Lizzie spends hours painting one single flower. It is a time of calmness, concentration and active meditation. The process and themes come together in a harmonious flow, allowing her to nurture a sense of inner peace and a heightened state of mind. She hopes it offers a similar experience to those who view her work.
