About

Ellisa is a UK based artist whose oil paintings are created using classical techniques.

Her work is characterised by a clear love for the Old Masters’ indirect method, employing advanced glazing to achieve a sense of depth and luminosity.

Predominantly self-taught, Ellisa has also pursued studies in historical drawing and painting with a classical oil painting atelier and she continues to refine her skills under the guidance of contemporary experts. Her style marries classical elegance with a magical charm, creating pieces that are both rooted in tradition and brimming with imagination.

Ellisa favours subjects that are timeless and enchanting that include elements of nature, feminine energy and scenes from fairy tales that embody whimsy and make believe.

"Painting is a journey that has no destination; it's a tranquil self indulgence that is immediately calming and meditative."
