Elizabeth Ker

Commissioning a portrait can feel unfamiliar: choosing the right artist, knowing what to expect, trusting the process. Having commissioned portraits of her own three children, Elizabeth knows that experience from both sides of the table. In more than 25 years of representing portrait artists, she has guided families, schools, colleges and universities, judges, and historical institutions throughout New England through it. She has been recognized as a Top 10 Sales Associate and is a recipient of the Million Dollar Career Sales Award.

Elizabeth stays involved from start to finish, beginning with matching each client to the artist best suited to bring their vision to life. She values the collaboration between artist and client above all, and works closely with both to make sure it results in a portrait her clients will love.

Born and raised in Greenwich, Connecticut, and Durham, North Carolina, Elizabeth graduated from Middlebury College and earned her MBA from Duke University's Fuqua School of Business. She began her career in credit card marketing at American Express before following her passion for art into the portrait business. She and her husband have lived in New Canaan, Connecticut for more than 30 years, with three years in London along the way.

Outside of work, Elizabeth is active in her community and enjoys time with family and friends, the outdoors, travel, racquet sports, and golf.
