Liz Fluehr is a Nebraska artist with a passion for water media, especially transparent watercolor. Among her favorite techniques is "painting the negative," in which Liz reveals each part of her subject by painting the area around it, defining edges rather than filling shapes. This approach is a distinct mindset which lends itself beautifully to the medium of watercolor because of its transparency.

Liz is a former architect who discovered painting as a creative outlet when she left the practice of architecture to raise her family. Liz displays her work in many shows and competitions, and is a frequent award winner. In 1999, Nebraska Life magazine published Liz's watercolors on its cover and in an article devoted to the story of her art. Watercolor Online and Artshow.com have featured Liz's step-by-step floral demonstration on their web sites.

Since 1994, Liz has taught a series of popular watercolor classes and workshops, both independently and through Metropolitan Community College in Omaha. She is a past president of Bellevue Artists' Association, and winner of the Golden Palette Award for her contribution to the fine arts in the Bellevue area.
