Welcome to a fantastic world called Wibbley World, where the inhabitants of Wibbley World live a life full of courage and adventure.Elizabeth Victoria Knowles has been painting for over a decade.Elizabeth's paintings represent a world where nothing bad ever happens, well nothing life threatening anyway. It seems if something horrible does happen, her adorable whimsical characters make the best of every situation. Take prissy for example - she was bitten by a radioactive flying fish so now she has to live her life as a cat/mermaid/fairy hybrid. Prissy just carries on with life with a coffee, martini and a big smile on her face, never giving up on hope.
So remember to never give up on hope and do it with a big smile !

So Elizabeth was kind enough to answer my 3 Q& A'S.
What inspires you ?
Our first Boston Terrier, Mr. Bones, was probably my first, biggest inspiration. After painting him with his huge, bi-color wall-eyes for the first time, my work went in a new direction. Continued inspiration comes from my husband (a never ending source of ideas for characters) my kids, and my pets. My work is also self-inspiring as new ideas will often come to me while I'm in the middle of a painting.
What do you do to relax?
To relax I like to watch DVD's with my husband, read, and draw or paint.
Best childhood memory?
This is a tough one as I don't know that I have a particular favorite, but my stuffed animals were very important to me & I loved playing with them. I also liked playing in the woods with my sister, birthdays, and coming home from school to watch Dark Shadows!
