Meet Elizabeth Silk
Elizabeth Silks art, communicating unspoken, soul-felt words.
Elizabeths passion to reach and touch the soul is apparent in the
intensity that is reflected in the eyes of her spirits and animals.
The eyes are the windows to the soul. Love, compassion, pride, despair, anger, fear,
introspection, understanding, intimacy, passion and freedom all are explored in
Elizabeths creations. Careful attention is paid to evoke a unique response from
every individual that casts eyes on her work. The complexity of human emotion relays
a feeling of fulfillment.
Elizabeth has recently brought her sculpting ability to the direction of Spirit. As quoted by Elizabeth, Sculpting is really exciting. The face of what I believe to be Indian Spirits changes form many times. I have to surrender and let them emerge without force. Their beings are proud and enigmatic.
As a child, Elizabeth was raised by her grandparents in Merseyside, England
(Liverpool). Her parents were an English mother and a Native American Sioux
father. In her adult life, Elizabeth has followed her Native American Ancestral
beliefs. She portrays American Indians not as victims, but as passionate, proud
and strong. Romancing a freedom of their soul that lives through us all,
Elizabeth awakens an undaunted Spirit and allows it to emerge.
Since the mid-1990s, Elizabeth has lived in Sedona (with her three boys pictured
here; Geoffrey, Robert and Michael), where many artists are concentrated because of the
energy that is so conducive to creativity. Elizabeths style changed dramatically
upon being introduced to Sedona, from stoic to free, by a message she received when
struggling with what to promote: Do what you love, with only love in mind, and
people will want to buy it.
