Zip! A hummingbird zooms across a blue morning sky. Her wings are pink and white. Her feathers are dark green, like a forest. She is very thirsty! Below her, flowers wave hello. Some are sunny yellow. One is bright orange. A big pink one is fluffy, like a pom-pom. Tiny dots of paint fly by, like sprinkles on a cake. Which flower will she visit first? The orange one calls, "Me, please!"
Price: A$60 (Australian dollars)
A girl in a soft blue hat looks right at you. Her hair is orange, like a shiny penny. Her bright blue eyes seem to say, "I know a secret." Behind her, grey, purple and brown paint swirls around. It looks like a storm that decided to stay calm. Her pink lips are shut tight. Is her secret about the sky? Is it about the sea? Maybe one day she will tell you.
Price: A$25 (Australian dollars)
Off goes a little explorer! The child wears a big blue hat and a red striped shirt. A long stick rests on one shoulder, with little balls hanging down. One hand swings a bucket. Bare feet go pitter-pat on round stepping stones. Red and yellow flowers pop up from the grass. "Have a good day!" they cheer. Where is the child going? Nobody knows. But today, anything fun could happen!

The big yellow sun wakes up. It sends out red, orange and blue stripes. They spread across the sky like a giant fan. The tallest cactus stretches its arms. "Good morning, everyone!" Little cactuses on the brown hills wave back. At the front, fat purple cactus blobs giggle together. They have tiny dark spots, like freckles. Spiky green leaves stand up to watch. Nobody is sleepy here. Every day starts with a party!
Price: A$70 (Australian dollars)
Some flowers sit in a round blue vase. They are having a very important meeting. The white flowers have sunny yellow middles. The pink flowers look shy. One has a dark middle, like a tiny night sky. "Let's make the room pretty," they all agree. A few petals have floated away to explore. One is resting on the table. Green and blue shadows lean in. They want to join the flowers too!
Price: A$90 (Australian dollars)
Everything over the hill is green. There is light green, bright green and dark green. Two white houses with red roofs sit in the grass. A big old tree spreads its arms wide. It has tiny white flowers on its branches. It gives the little house a shady hug. Soft blue clouds float slowly by. Little white flowers peek up from the grass. You could lie here all afternoon!
Price: A$70 (Australian dollars)
Splish, splash! A girl walks through the shallow, sparkly sea. Her white dress has little red dots. Her long dark hair blows in the wind. Her hands are full of bright, colourful treasures. Seagulls fly above her. "Find one for us too!" they call. Waves roll in softly. Rocks sit still like sleepy turtles. The clouds look like whipped cream. The cool water splashes her feet. What will she find next?
Price: A$50 (Australian dollars)
When the house goes quiet, the kitchen shelf wakes up. The big red pot yawns. "Who wants to chat?" A tall blue bottle and a green bottle stand up straight, like guards. A jug wiggles in its orange, pink and green coat. A little white cup sits nicely. A round yellow-green fruit rolls over to listen. Even a tiny red bead wants to join in. The friends tell stories all night long!
Hello, and welcome to ElizGallery! Every piece in this shop is an original artwork made by Elizabeth, age 10. She loves to draw landscapes of nature and things she sees in the world, and she makes her art with pencil, watercolour, acrylic and oil paint. In her own words: “I like making art because it is a way that I can express myself and just do it. I also like art because there is no wrong or right.” Each artwork is an original, so the picture you take home is the only one of its kind. Because Elizabeth is a child, ElizGallery is owned, run and supervised by her dad, Colin, who looks after the listings, messages, payments and posting, as Etsy requires. Thank you so much for supporting a young artist!
“My favourite artist is Vincent van Gogh because he puts a lot of emotion into his artworks and he also puts a lot of detail into his art.”
