Elizabeth Gorcey’s passion is to live in her truth, and she urges each of us to express ourselves authentically. Elizabeth notes, “When I look around and see what's happening in the world today, it makes my heart break for humanity. This propels me to paint because I feel the pain, sorrow, and discontent of so many souls. I hope that the people who view my paintings recognize a piece of their own humanity, and know that they are being seen. Creating art is nourishment for my soul.”
