About Liz Charsley:

Liz Charsley is an artist with a fondness for wild spaces. Born and raised in Canada, Liz has always spent as much time outdoors as possible. Moving to London upon completion of her BA in Fine Art, Liz has become familiar with most of the parks in South London, cycling through them and along the Thames, gathering ideas for drawings. Liz works on paper, using charcoal, oil pastel, ink, or watercolour to make large drawings of wild, unpopulated landscapes, or wildflowers and weeds. She has also produced hundreds of cyanotypes of weeds and grasses. 

Liz was appointed Canadian Artist in Residence at Dulwich Picture Gallery in 2011, to support the exhibition Painting Canada: Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven, and stayed on as Teaching Artist until 2019. Liz led workshops in drawing and painting for children and adults, and now teaches 2 weekly classes for adults in her home in Herne Hill (and on Zoom since the beginning of Covid). Liz was also Artist in Residence 2018-2019 at Winton and Hugh Myddelton schools in Islington, teaching a different aspect of drawing to each class in the school throughout the year.
