Most recently she finds herself in between Stockton and Oakland California. She attended Pratt Institute for one year before leaving to dedicate her life to her work while living in the unfinished basement underneath Black Spring Books in Brooklyn. Elizabeth has a painting portfolio which can be seen at elizabethmayoart.com, and is currently recording an album of music with her band, which she writes all the words to.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Elizabeth Mayo","offers":[{"title":"Chapbook","offer_id":44715137237307,"sku":"DANCEM","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Digital Download (PDF)","offer_id":44715137270075,"sku":"DANCEMe","price":7.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0062\/4420\/4614\/products\/dancefront.png?v=1697489885","url":"https:\/\/bottlecap.press\/products\/dancem","provider":"Bottlecap Press","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
