Friends (13)About Me
Elizabeth Moore is a multi-talented artist and founder of Froote Jewelry, an eco-conscious jewelry studio. Born in Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania, she moved to Europe while in her early 20s to study art. She earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design and a Master's degree in spiritual psychology from the University of Santa Monica in 2003.
Elizabeth moved to Los Angeles in the late 80's and very quickly discovered her talents in film production and set design. She created spaces for Steve Martin, Cindy Crawford and many others. She has also designed sets that reflect the unique personalities of musical artists such as Prince, Sheryl Crow, Lenny Kravitz, Stevie Nicks, Travis Tritt, George Harrison, and Roy Orbison. There is some speculation that Elizabeth was the inspiration for Prince's mega-hit song, "Raspberry Beret" because while designing sets for Prince's Purple Rain Tour and Around the World Tour, she often wore a "raspberry beret" and "went in through the out door." The visual arts have been have been integral to Elizabeth's life. Painting, film production, interior design and travel have been the backbone of her expression. In 2005 she discovered the world of semi-precious stones and, along with the formation of Froote (a interior design and functional art company), Froote Jewelry was established. Elizabeth gained attention with her jewelry on Bravo TV's Top Design. She showcased her Island, Calypso and Tudor lines at the Sonya Dakar Red Carpet Oscar event in 2007. The introduction of the line with actress Dominika Wolski, who is now the face of Froote Jewelry, established the jewelry in Hollywood. "I love creating things that are unique that people can have to express who they are in their own environment," Elizabeth explains. "With an art form like painting, it's exclusive; only one person can have it. Jewelry is an art form that is out in the world moving around, enhancing personal expression and creating the individuals unique experience." Froote Jewelry is inspired by the beauty of the earth, the materials and stones come from the earth to remind us of the hidden treasures that are part of our planet's natural resources. When wearing Froote Jewelry, one is reminded of the precious beauty that exists in our world. In addition to running her business, Elizabeth teaches Pre-Production Visualization, Production Design, Art Direction and Visualization at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. She also teaches Concept Development and Integrated Learning at Otis College of Art and Design. Staying in touch with the creative process and inspiring students to realize their dreams is a reflection of Elizabeth's zest for life. Elizabeth and her son Elliott live and play in Southern California. Verified Credits (0)Worked with froote jewelry? Share your experience and become verified! Add Credits
