Elizabeth Ann McNally is an artist and print maker residing in New Britain. She chooses to work in both narrative and nonrepresentational content.  Key elements in her narrative work are animals, humor, and the graphic use of line. In her nonrepresentational art, color, line, pattern and the properties of the material and medium, are the sole focus of compositions. Elizabeth has a bachelor’s of fine arts from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) with a focus in drawing and printmaking.  She has received many honors including honorable mention awards in Mystic Art Association’s 45th Regional Juried Show and in the professional category for CRT’s 2015 National Art’s Program show in Connecticut.  Elizabeth and her solo show, Playful in the Barnes Franklin Gallery, was featured in the Greater Hartford Arts Council’s blog, “Artists Spotlight.”
