Elizabeth Williams is drawn to abstract forms and enjoys observing simple pa erns found in nature, color and shape in a landscape, and the complex lines in a person’s face. Her artmaking process is forever expanding as she observes, mediates and synthesizes her thoughts and emotions into abstract line and form on canvas.

An excerpt from the “NeuroArts Blueprint: Advancing the Science of Arts, Health, and Wellbeing”

The NeuroArts Blueprint is a partnership between the Johns Hopkins International Arts + Mind Lab: The Center for Applied Neuroaesthetics (IAM Lab) and the Aspen Institute’s Health, Medicine & Society Program (HMS).

Scientific studies increasingly confirm what human beings across cultures and throughout time have long recognized: we are wired for art. The arts can improve our physical and mental health, amplify our ability to prevent, manage, or recover from disease challenges, enhance brain development in children, build more equitable communities, and foster wellbeing through multiple biological systems.
