Elizabeth (Liz) Moore Hosier grew up outside of Asheville NC; the forest was her playground, while drawing and other creative endeavors were her pastime.  Liz was fortunate to have had teachers who recognized and nurtured her interest in art throughout her early education.  She holds a MBA and a BS in Mathematics.  In the mid-80s she moved to Wilmington to continue her Information Technology (IT) career at UNCW.  While at UNCW she studied art history and studio art.  When the opportunity to retire presented itself, Liz began to seriously pursue her love of art and to seek her artist voice.   

Obsessed with colors and light, her work has evolved into process-based abstract painting which gives Liz the freedom to consider a variety of  techniques, colors and materials.  Liz’s strong connection with nature and the innate need to be creative is reflected in her artwork. 

She works primarily in encaustics, oil, mixed media, and occasionally acrylics. She teaches at Gallery Citrine (Wilmington, NC) and ArtPlay River Arts District (Asheville, NC).  She is a member of the River Arts District Arts (Asheville) and Art Safari (Weaverville, NC).  Currently her work is in Gallery Citrine (Wilmington). and Pink Dog Creative and ArtPlay in the River Arts District (Asheville).
