Hi! I’m Elaine, a freelance illustrator, surface designer, and plant enthusiast. My art is described as charming and whimsical, drawing inspiration from nature, travel, urban landscapes, and patterns. My go-to art tools are watercolor, gouache, and colored pencils.
When I'm not drawing, you'll find me flâneuring, dog stalking, reading or gardening 🌼.
Let’s create art together…
This art class is focused on perfecting the art of drawing simplified mini figures, stylized faces, portraits, and full-body illustrations. In this course, you’ll benefit from step-by-step guidelines and proportional techniques that are crafted to launch your journey into drawing people.
This mixed media art class is ideal for beginners looking to explore a variety of art materials and techniques through practical lessons. We'll work with pastels, pencils, markers, and gouache, building confidence in blending these mediums. Each lesson fosters experimentation and creativity, guiding you to develop your unique style while sharpening your skills. By the course’s end, you'll have discovered exciting new ways to express yourself in the dynamic world of mixed media.
In this class, you'll dive into fun and engaging warm-up exercises designed to break through artist's block, refine your skills, and ignite your imagination. From mixed media exploration to creating a final full-spread artwork, you'll learn techniques to enhance your artistic journey and develop the mindset necessary for a fun and sustainable sketchbook practice.
