collaborating with the museum of fine arts houston

The Museum of Fine Arts Houston is home to an incredible permanent collection of modern and classical artworks. It also boasts one of the largest endowments in the United States, attracting exhibits from the most renown artists of the present and past. New to the city of Houston, Elizabeth is pleased to maintain an ongoing partnership with MFAH, attending early viewings and openings while sharing the best of what’s to come with her own viewers.

sharing an Artist’s viewpoint

Most recently, Elizabeth was invited to an early access tour of the Exhibit “Hockney — Van Gogh: The Joy of Nature” with the museum’s director, Gary Tinterow . From there she was took the Museum’s extended visitors and viewers through the exhibit to discuss, via the lens of an artist, how one artist can take direct inspiration from another. This collaboration gave Elizabeth the opportunity to spend time with works from her favorite living artist, David Hockney, while sharing how his work has been inspired by that of Vincent van Gogh.

taking inspiration home

Following the tour, Elizabeth was asked to select key pieces from the museum store to bring home and share with her viewers and collectors. Her two favorite ways of generating creative energy are visiting museums and perusing her collection of antique and contemporary books on art. Given that MFAH’s store is home to an incredible collection of these books, Elizabeth relished the opportunity to add to her collection.
