Liz Corley. Artist. Elizabeth Corley is a 47 year old teacher and artist based in West Oxfordshire. She was born and educated in London studying graphic design before taking up teaching. She is currently head of Art at a secondary school in West Oxfordshire. She also runs her own company Liz Corley Art. She started LCA late in 2019 and it has steadily grown. Her unique range of artwork and homewares featuring her designs is stocked in a number of retail outlets as well as online through her website and the Friends of Joules online platform. Her brand has grown through her own unique style being transferred to a number of ethically sourced and environmentally conscientious products.

Her wooden wall art range has been extremely successful blending her images of wildlife on to recycled wood predominantly from pallets destined for landfill. Bees, flowers, hares and birds are hand painted directly on to the wood. This is then treated with a water based not toxic varnish allowing the piece to be hung both inside and outside.

LCA homewares includes aprons, water bottles, mugs, hand painted chopping boards and gift boxes. She has a large following of fans with a strong online presence. Her LCA "clan" as she refers to them often buy her new designs as they are released to grow their collections. LCA products are also starting feature on resale and collectors website possibly hinting at a growing following and collectability.
