In Love We Live, In God We Trust
Born and raised in Wales Wisconsin, the youngest of three. Elissa loved creating art her entire life starting with finger paint in 2nd grade. She's found great joy in the inspiration of life events with her husband and two children along with her love of gardening and adventures hiking & traveling. There are five collections of work she is constantly growing.
Nature Buddies, Pathways, Landscapes,
The Forgotten, and Florals.
Often using several ideas or inspirations to create a single masterpiece rather than using one single image to copy, with the drive to see what can't be seen keeps her excited about creating something new.
Challenges & new processes she learns by happenstance often feed her drive to continue painting-the reason behind the why to stay focused on creating. She also loves
to share her love of art by hosting classes to share & inspire others to create.
I believe everyone wants to be inspired.
