Elizabeth C Grace

Born and educated in New York City (1954).
Often compared to the Luminist painters, Elizabeth Carroll Grace was described as a Romantic Realist and an heir to the Hudson River School of landscape painting because of her commitment to beauty and technique and was one of a handful of contemporary artists to be included in the exalted company of the 19th and 20th century masters


Light within light: The artist seeks in nature's illumination to find the light within, to evoke the beauty, dignity and unity that hint of the sublime and the transcendent. Images and impressions are distilled, not only from the artist's native state of New York, but also from Asia and Europe. These naturalistic scenes emphasize the heightened emotional effects of light and distance
