Artist Statement: Liz Tran is a graduate in Print Art and Painting from Cornish College of the Arts. She exhibits both nationally and internationally. Channeling dream imagery, imagined landscapes, geodes, outer space and The Big Bang, Tran’s work explores the shapes of nature and the psychedelic colors of her imagination. Created as a form of therapy during Seattle's long, grey winters, she creates an atmosphere that is brighter, more playful, more colorful and more amiable than the world in which we exist.
