Elizabeth Loechle

I am an artist and accessory designer from Cincinnati, OH. You can find (and buy!) my work on Etsy at http://www.etsy.com/shop/elizacatherine. I donate 10% of the proceeds to Girls on the Run.

I also sell jewelry through Chloe & Isabel. Check out my page here.

I create "wearable art" in the form of customized cashmere gloves and one-of-a-kind cuffs made from silk neckties. I also embellish gloves to make them fun and unique.

For my non-wearable pieces, I use raw or painted drywall as my canvas and use string to create unique patterns of light and shadow. Many describe my art as "elegant" and I think it fits equally well in modern and traditional settings.

I developed and honed my string-and-drywall technique during my days at Hanover College in Indiana, where I won the prestigious art student of the year award. A permanent installation piece is featured at the school.
