Inside the studio
In Elise’s imagined studio, a painting begins with looking. A chipped blue cup, a shadow across a wall and the edge of a hillside become a small collection of colours before they become a picture. Her board gives those beginnings as much room as the finished work.
The collection moves between studies, materials and quiet notes about place. A studio film can sit beside a poem; a report about access to creative space can share a row with a new canvas. The person and the practice become visible together.
