Elizabeth's pages
|
Elizabeth who had been severely disabled for many years sadly passed away a few months ago. She was, in her much younger days, a member of the famous Tiller Girl dance troupe and with them performed at many major theatres throughout the world including an appearance at a Royal Command Variety show at the London Palladium. She left the Troupe to marry and now has three children, some grandchildren and great-grandchildren many of whom live close by. She suffered a devastating stroke some eight years ago which has left her totally paralysed on her right side and she became fully confined to a wheelchair. With her lovely smile and good humour she was an amazingly inspirational lady who remained cheerful and determined to live as normally as possible despite her severe disability and also losing her beloved husband early in 2019.
Some of the examples of her artwork shown below were done before her stroke but, despite having to learn to use her left hand (she was right-handed before her stroke), began to try to resurrect her drawing and watercolour talents and quickly started to produce some impressive results. |
