Meet the Artist

Hi, I’m Ellie — artist, illustrator, portrait enthusiast, and occasional caffeine-powered paint-slinger. I studied Studio Art with a focus on Fine Art – specifically painting, drawing, and the magical chaos that is life drawing and portraiture. Faces, figures, and all the tiny anatomical details? That’s my jam.

Over the years, my art practice has wandered through oil and acrylic paintings, charcoal and graphite sketches, digital illustrations, and even ceramic portrait busts (because sometimes a drawing just wants to be 3D). Whether I’m elbow-deep in a mixed media experiment or zoomed in on a pixel-perfect digital portrait, my work always circles back to the human condition — expressive, messy, honest, and beautifully complex.
