Liz Redding – Acrylics

Liz Redding is a self-taught artist from Laurel Springs, NC who works mainly in acrylics and resin. She had art training as a youth, but put down the paintbrush after college to pursue a career in Information Technology. After retirement in 2015, she picked up the paintbrush and began to explore her creative side again.

Liz believes that art should be used and enjoyed. Many of her works are upcycled household objects rescued from second-hand stores and flea markets and given a second life.

She and her husband have had their farm in Laurel Springs for over 30 years and moved up permanently in 2020 from the Winston Salem Area. She enjoys her life in these beautiful mountains with her husband and her assistant “Miss Ellie” (pictured).
