This painting is one of the serie: #Human #Lights. Inspired on the light of the dutch masters but the woman is placed in the context of the light nowadays.
‘#Human #Lights’ is inspired on the world famous light of (after Caravaggio of course) painters like Rembrandt and Vermeer. 
Warm candle lights in dark paintings. These images are viewed in this series in contemporary light, from nowadays like light of neon, LED, smartphones or computers. Our eyes, our vision has become habituated to this light, day and night we have these lights around us. 
With these generations of light – warm and cold – brought together, a rainbow arises. 
A rainbow is the symbol of these days, but we can see it through the years of our art history. A rainbow was seen in many cultures as a friendly gesture from god to man. These days the rainbow stands for peace and gay movement. 

‘Moving in a spotlight’ is typical for the current generation. We take part in every talent show, have our own blog, and movies on YouTube. This has a beautiful side but also a volatile side. The success of today is volatile because many things come and go even faster. Like the canvas of #Human #Lights. When it took a little longer it went up in smoke and disappeared from the scene.

Art makes humans understand each other a little better. That is Lizzy's conviction. Art wants to have a dialogue with the viewer, the listener, or the feeler. Art can make a (better) connection between human. For each other’s emotions, situations or for even different images of time. Art can make cracks and breaks smaller, between generations and art stiles. Between the past and the future. Like the art historian Rudi Fuchs said: ‘images are here to help us see’. It’s Lizzy's challenge to combine this in her work with craft techniques and contemporary techniques. 'You have to feel the struggle and assembly of these techniques, the past and future in the subject and in the material'. Fascination for humans, emotions and light are always strongly present in Lizzy her work.
