Elizabeth Martyn traveled to Australia from London in 1981. She studied Fine Art in Bristol, England, then worked in the theatre as designer and performer appearing at the Edinburgh Festival from l977 to l979.

Drawing, painting, sculpture and theatre have been part of her life for many years. She paints in watercolour and oil, using pure colours with luminous intensity. Having trained as an art therapist, the use of colour for healing forms the basis of her work.

Arabunna Country, around Lake Eyre in S.A. has been a source of inspiration over the past ten years. She exhibited with Reg Dodd, Arabunna Senior Man in Melbourne in 2009.

She has work in several healing centres, as well as private collections in England and Australia.

Works may also be viewed by appointment at her Camberwell studio, where she also teaches life drawing and painting classes.
