“A collection of marks influenced by objects, words, music, locations and events experienced. Mostly viewed from a mind’s eye perspective, the work evolves from my reaction to a particular experience at a particular time”.
“The label, ‘Still Life’, has been applied to my work. I think of a still life as a deliberate placing of a set of artifacts to be recorded as arranged in view. I don’t think of my work as still life. Neil Astley of Bloodaxe Books remarked that I had, “Reinvented the still life” and certainly elements of still life occur in the work. Flowers are often involved. I really enjoy painting flowers. It’s personal. In my mind I make stories, the viewer may find their own interpretation. Basically, I paint.”

Gallerist comment "It’s quite an honour in late 2021 to have now persuaded Liz Knox to join our stable of artists . An elected member of Glasgow Art Club and former Past President of PAI , Liz is a stalwart and renowned member of the Scottish Art Scene . Her detail, colour and talent makes her paintings unique and whilst she might argue that she doesn’t set out to paint a still life , her paintings unquestionably tell a story "
