Elizabeth Peyton

These are a few works done by Peyton that captured my interest...












Elizabeth Peyton, born 1965, studied fine arts in the mid-80s at the School of Visual Arts. Contemporary American Painter whose first successful exhibition in NYC was in a Chelsea Hotel room. Known for her stylized and idealized portraits of her close friends, pop celebrities, and European Monarchy. Beautiful.

Created at work, after watching all the oh-so-busy people who are always in a hurry to get their coffee.


This girl was just off the top of my head. I love drawing people and figures especially in motion.
