In the Gallery at R&F:

Elizabeth Chandler’s exhibition, entitled "California Fusion", will run through November 25th, 2006. Elizabeth Chandler paints subtly hued abstractions with layered, diagrammatic patterns and textures suggestive of primitive mapmaking. Executed in oil and encaustic paint, Chandler creates a meandering, dreamlike pictorial space in landscape format where the map and the territory are one and the same. Elizabeth Chandler resides in California and is represented by Gremillion Gallery in Houston.
