ELIZABETH GARRISON & VICTOR HENDERSON have been collaborating on public art projects since the late 1980s. They have completed commissions together for Metrolink, the Community Redevelopment Agency, Santa Fe Springs Arts Council, City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs and many local municipalities. Their work is characterized by vivid imagery that often reflects historical aspects of the community in which they work.
Garrison is a third generation Californian; she studied art at Pasadena City College and received her BFA from CSU-Long Beach and her MFA from CSU-Los Angeles where she trained as a painter. Garrison took up creamics in 2007, which has added a new dimension to her public art work. Henderson was born in Ohio and raised in Pasadena, CA; he studied art at Pasadena City College and received his BFA from San Francisco State. Henderson was co-founder of the Los Angeles-based mural collective, LA Fine Art Squad during the late 60's and early 70's.
