Artist Spotlight: Liza Hathaway Matthews

August 20, 2015 By Christy Davis Leave a Comment

For those of you who do not know this, I’m a lover of the arts.  I absolutely love art, and if I could be collector I would!  I am starting another new series where I spotlight artists, whose work I love.  Today I want to introduce you to abstract artist  Liza Hathaway Matthews.

Liza Hathaway Matthews

Liza is a talented abstract artist and textile designer.  She works closely with designers, specialty home stores, art brokers, galleries and private collectors.  If you are wondering how I was introduced to Liza’s work, well it’s kind of a small-world sort of story.  Liza reached out to me regarding some of her art via social media, and I of course said yes, I would love to work with you in trying to place her art in my clients’  homes.  As we exchanged emails, I discovered, unbeknownst to me, I had already seen her textiles in person and was somewhat familiar with her work.  I absolutely love her abstract art and textiles. This past April, while in High Point, I stopped by friend Mary Catherine’s booth, Cotton + Quill, and she was showing me some of her newer textiles, and some of those fabrics were designed by Liza.  Small world!
Let’s get back to Liza and her gorgeous art.  She loves creating art because it’s a wonderful outlet for her to experiment with color, texture and pattern. You will find all of that in her work and more.

‘I am constantly inspired by my surroundings, interiors, different landscapes and daily travels. I look at something and envision it on a canvas.’

Liza has a few different styles that give her the flexibility to play with different subject matter. For instance, she enjoys doing landscapes and seascapes but with a very abstract feel. You can see a horizon line in these pieces with possible reflections depicted in the piece.  Her use of metallics gives the sense of a sparkly cloud, sunset or water glistening. Everyone can relate to a landscape and/or seascape, and these pieces of hers happen to currently be the most popular.  Recently Liza just finished a large piece (60 x 72) for the Washington DC Showhouse for Iantha Carley Interiors. It is a ‘watercolor’ feel seascape that shows large reflective pools of water.  This piece is for sale. Please contact Liza if interested.
Here is the image of her piece, that is available, in the DC Showhouse.

As I mentioned above that Liza has a textile line collaboration with Cotton and Quill; her second line came out in April at Highpoint. The first collection was a ‘marble’ collection, and the second is a ‘chinoiserie’ collection. Each are offered in cotton, cotton linen and sateen.

‘Cotton and Quill has been wonderful to work with as they work closely with me to make sure we come up with the best repeat, color edits and how it will be marketed.’

Currently both lines have been used in upholstery and my ‘silver’ chinoiserie will be used on all furniture in a living room, stay tuned! Both lines can be purchased through Cotton + Quill.

Liza has a very bohemian style; she loves to mix the old with the new.  As she just moved into her new home on Lake Roland, she painted everything Benjamin Moore, Simply White, which allowed her love for color and texture shine through.  This great shade of white is the perfect backdrop for her colorful furnishings and art, some of her art collection features a few of her pieces, her mother’s work and many other artists.

I hope you enjoyed getting know a little more about the talented artist Liza Hathaway Matthews!  Below are more images of her work!  Be sure to follow Liza on Social Media to see her latest and greatest: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest.

    Happy Friday! Loved creating this cozy, warm & inv Happy Friday! Loved creating this cozy, warm & inviting family room. Layering patterns & textures are the easiest way to create a cozy space.

Also fun fact: this is the only project I’ve worked on in Columbia, where I have used orange in the color palette. Who knew most of my clients prefer cool tones.

    I can’t believe I hadn’t shared this delicious I can’t believe I hadn’t shared this delicious restaurant in Paris, @girafe_paris Not only is the food amazing, but the interiors are absolutely stunning!

The bar is faced w gorgeous fluted marble & a double thick edge. The bar seats are equally as fabulous. If you look at the walls they are fluted as well. This bar is one of the most beautiful interiors I’ve ever seen, all the way down to the bar accessories. Not one detail was left out. There is a view of the Eiffel Tower, which makes for a picturesque meal.

The food was amazing! Do yourself a favor and put this restaurant on your list of places to eat in my beloved Paris!

    Anyone else wishing they could stay in bed a littl Anyone else wishing they could stay in bed a little longer?! 🙋🏽‍♀️ Today I wished I could’ve slept in another 30 min. Here’s a master bedroom I’m workin on. We still have draperies to complete the space.

But I think it’s coming along beautifully! I love the peaceful color tones & the abstract floral art. The windows will have faux Roman shades in a neutral embroidered fabric.
