ARTISTS BIO:    ELIZABETH KITCHO

• Born in the heart of New York City, with Central Park as her playground, Elizabeth Kitcho soon obtained an early discriminating interest in the arts. Wandering the majestic halls of the Metropolitan Museum, inspired by the world's greatest artists, Elizabeth inevitably became part of that world.

• Elizabeth Kitcho majored in art at Washington Irving High School and continued her studies at the Art Student' League, Queens College and Botini Art Gallery. Conducted private art classes in her studio for children and adults, and then an art instructor in adult education. She devoted many years to portraiture, receiving countless commissions.

• Elizabeth's painting has a special sophisticated charm all her own. She describes her style as "Impressionistic realism", but perhaps better understood as revealing both truth and fantasy. One easily identifies oneself in her painting; of past joys or summer dreams. With sensitive blending of muted colors creating a nostalgic atmosphere of figures in a mood of quiet tranquility.

• Held ART SHOWS in: New York, Pennsylvania; Massachusetts; Connecticut; New Jersey; Delaware.
