Vibrant floral watercolor titled “Hibiscus,” pencil-inscribed with the title and hand-signed twice by acclaimed Canadian watercolourist Elizabeth Berry — once in paint within the composition and again in pencil beneath the imageMarked “Artist Proof 14/20” in the artist’s hand, denoting a limited artist’s proof from the edition.
A lush, sun-drenched composition of layered red and coral-pink hibiscus blossoms set against rich green foliage, showcasing Berry’s signature loose, luminous washes and confident botanical eye
Elizabeth Berry is a Toronto-born visual artist (b. 1945) who first gained recognition in 1982 when she won the Toronto Archive Award at the Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition, going on to win Best in Watercolour at the same show in both 1986 and 1987.
A former schoolteacher and book editor, she turned to painting full-time and has since become known for her vivid, sunlit depictions of gardens, architecture, and landscapes gathered on her travels through Northern Ontario, Georgian Bay, Muskoka, the Caribbean, and England. Her work hangs in corporate offices and private collections around the world
Beautifully presented in a wide gold gallery frame with a triple ivory mat accented by a slender green fillet border, under glass
Condition: The artwork itself is clean, bright, and free of visible fading, foxing, or damage. The frame face shows only light, expected handling wear. The paper dust cover on the reverse has some tearing and separation along the edges (purely cosmetic, does not affect the artwork), and the piece is fitted with a hanging wire and chain for easy display
