ARTIST

I am an artist and I paint acrylic abstracts. My painting evolved from the stage. Painting, like theater, tells the human story. As a theater artist, I’ve often called on nonverbal elements such as color and texture to convey character. My paintings are similar attempts to capture the “landscapes” of human experience. These are explorations; adventures in to that which is elusive and, at the same time, universally familiar. I am intrigued by how little of our life experience can be successfully framed by words. The wellspring of thought and emotion that is unique in the individual and common to us all is the thing I am after. For now, I try to name fragments of the “universal consciousness” with gestures in color, movement, and texture. Please visit my website at elizabethwiseman.com.
