Elizabeth Twistington Higgins MBE (6 November 1923 - 12 September 1990) was a British ballet dancer, and later a painter. Twistington was a professional ballet dancer and teacher in her twenties, until she contracted polio in 1953. She was paralysed below the neck, and used an iron lung and a wheelchair the rest of her life. She retrained as a painter, holding and controlling the brush with her lips; her subjects were usually still life or ballet themes. She used an adapted easel and other custom devices designed by Roger Jefcoate. She was a member of the Association of Mouth and Foot Painting Artists, and her paintings were exhibited internationally. She directed a liturgical dance troupe, the Chelmsford Dancers, and continued to teach, choreograph, and design costumes for dance. Ref SS 1.
