ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Photo credit: Dawson River Kelpies (used with permission) The vast landscape of the country we call home is one of harsh beauty. From the windswept coastline, it's rugged banksias and coastal shrubs bracing themselves against the unrelenting, salty currents of the air... to the dry red barrenness of the Australian outback, gum trees and eucalypts firmly standing proud and tall against the harsh conditions that would cause any other tree to shrivel up in fear. This rugged, beautiful land is one that moulds it's foliage and creatures to grow sturdy and strong - to be able to withstand the floods and droughts, the fires and the chilling nights... to withstand any condition or circumstance thrown their way. The Australian Kelpie is such a creature, shaped by this country to withstand the harsh heat and dry conditions of the vast open spaces of Australia. Lithe, her muscled body ripples in the hard work of cattle herding, spinning on one paw to change direction in a split second. Her eyes never leave her farmer, waiting for the slightest movement to signal where to steer her heard. Her body twists and turns in the beautiful and purposeful dance he has for her. Unrelenting, she pushes her body, relishing the speed and precision of her movements, pausing only when her farmer signals it. full artist statement available at

Hello! My name is Elizabeth Kate Cooper (AKA Lizzie), and my passion as a Christian artist is to create works that celebrate the beauty and complexity of the beautiful fauna and flora of God's incredible creation. As an Australian artist, most of my work boasts the beauty of Australian sceneries (particularly in the Central Queensland area), as well as the unique animals, birds and flowers of this incredible country. I love working with a pallet knife to recreate the energy and flow of stunning landscapes on my larger acrylic on canvas works, as well as sitting down to the finer details of character and specific features in my floral works and animal portraits. I started out my career as an allied health professional, having the privilege of working with a wonderful, dedicated team in a regional hospital for a number of years. In November 2020, our precious daughter was born prematurely, and we lost her three weeks later. Painting was one of the ways I managed to stay focused on the beauty there still was in the world around me, despite the fact that our little angel was no longer with us. Though our beautiful little Anna will never be far from my heart, God has bought so much good through her short life, including the opportunity for me to launch my career as an artist. I believe art really is a God-given gift to bring so much healing, as we allow our soul the space to breathe and express our deepest emotions. As such, I so value the opportunity to bring joy, peace and awe into the homes of my collectors through my works, as well as share the experience of creative expression in my classes.
