Elizabeth C. Tower (1920-2013), Red Ladder, 1968; oil on canvas, 40 x 36 inches (Frame: 41 x 37 inches); The Charles Rand Penney Collection of Western New York Art at the Burchfield Art Center, 1991
Liz Tower's work exhibited simplified landscape forms and interior studies. Her work always offered a directness and forcefulness in design, color, and movement. Her art comes from within. She always approached her canvases with an open mind and let her imagination take full reign. Always the art is internal, spiritual, and highly personal. It is entirely her own creation and reflects her very original talent. -Dr. Albert Michaels, Curator
