Elizabeth Hershon is a painter and sculptor living in New York City.

My inspirations include myth, history, and poetry. I like playing with puns and symbols, often working in series, experimenting with a theme until a certain mood in created. I like the element of surprise. A lot of these imagers just come to me ; sometimes it’s the title I hear first, and the image comes out of that. Content is only part of it; most important is the materials, paint or clay, color, texture, form, pattern, all that painting and sculpture entail. The possibilities seem endless so I continue to explore.
