About the Artist

My name is Elizabeth O'Neil Lowry.  I grew up in Maine with a pen in my hand, always drawing.  I knew from an early age that I wanted to be an artist, and majored in illustration in college, but I listened to the voices of reason around me and pursued careers in other fields. 

After several years in the restaurant business, and then a dozen in retail as a makeup artist, I still find the need to create art.  So I started listening to the voices of inspiration rather than reason, left the retail industry,  and restarted my career as an artist.  I have always loved painting portraits of people, but I wanted to do something a little different, so I went in another direction, and started painting portraits of houses.   

Every home provides a special glimpse into the character of its inhabitants because of all the history, love, and work that goes into it.  Our personalities show through in surprising ways.  I hope you are inspired by what you see here and will give me the opportunity to put your house on paper.
