In this inspiring episode, Editor-in-Chief Susan Harold sit down with California-based artist Elizabeth Barlow to explore how painting flowers has transformed her life—and how meditation, devotion, and her “slow painting” process shape the way she creates. Elizabeth shares why she considers herself “devoted” rather than simply disciplined, how meditation supports her creative practice, and the story behind Transfiguration, her recent commission installed at All Saints’ Episcopal Church in Carmel, California. We explore the deeper connection between art, nature, spirituality, and the transformative act of slowing down. Living and working in Carmel-by-the-Sea, Elizabeth is known for her hyper-realistic, larger-than-life flower paintings, which reveal the transformative power of nature and beauty. Through her ongoing Flora Portraits series, she sees flowers as symbols of the power of re-emergence found within all living things. Her work is held in public and private collections and represented by Andra Norris Gallery in the San Francisco Bay Area, where she exhibits regularly.

She shares how her deeply personal creative process begins with listening to each client's story, allowing every quilt to become a one-of-a-kind tribute woven with love, history, and connection. Together, we explore the unforgettable stories behind some of Lori's most meaningful commissions, the emotional significance of creating with clothing that carries a lifetime of memories, and why these handcrafted heirlooms become treasured keepsakes for generations to come. Lori also offers a glimpse into the projects currently inspiring her and discusses her vision for sharing her process and techniques with a wider audience, making this conversation an inspiring reminder that creativity has the power to preserve not only fabric, but the people and moments that matter most.
