January Artist’s Reception
Join us on Monday, January 12 from 5-6:30 p.m. at the Dam Brewhouse in Campton for our next Artist’s Reception featuring Liz Keefe.
Liz’s artwork is inspired by her life as a farmer and her connection to the land. Growing up on a dairy farm fostered a love for the quiet beauty of the countryside, from stone walls to winter walks through the woods. She is drawn to “quiet places” and often captures subtle moments in nature, including the cast shadows on snow.
Working primarily in soft pastels, Liz values their immediacy, texture, and vibrant color. She also incorporates digital painting as an underlayer, blending traditional and digital processes to reflect the stillness and depth of the landscapes she knows best.
