About Elise

I’m a mosaic artist and abstract painter based in the Texas Hill Country, just outside Austin. I’ve spent years exploring color, texture, and the hands-on process of creating art, working across both mosaics and painting.

My work blends a modern, organic aesthetic with bold color, pattern, and unexpected materials. From original mosaics and abstract paintings to custom installations, I love creating pieces that bring warmth, personality, and a sense of artistry into a space.

Over the years, my work has been exhibited and sold throughout the U.S. and can be found in private homes, businesses, and public spaces around Austin. I’ve also taught mosaic workshops at the Dougherty Arts Center and now welcome small groups into my home studio for relaxed, hands-on classes.

Outside the studio, I’m a registered nurse, and yoga has been an important part of my life and creative practice for many years. The movement, mindfulness, and connection to the natural world that I find through yoga often make their way into my work—sometimes intentionally and sometimes simply through the way I approach color, form, and the creative process.

I believe art doesn’t have to be perfect or precious. It should feel personal, collected, and at home in the spaces where we live.
