Elizabeth Jose has lived in Taos, New Mexico for four years and is a member of the Taos Society of Portrait Artists. Already an accomplished portrait artist, she was inspired by the breathtaking scenery of Taos to begin painting landscapes about 3 years ago, and has already had critical acclaim for her work. Her work is represented by Sage Fine Art Gallery in Taos. Most definitely an up-and-coming artist and an artist to watch, her work is attracting collectors.
Jose says that moving to Taos in 2005 rekindled her love of painting and she has made art her main priority since settling in the area. 'I have always been a most curious 'people-watcher,' so it is no surprise that I am drawn to portraiture' says Jose. 'I enjoy the process of trying to capture not only the idiosyncratic features of the person but also some aspect of their energy and character.' She is happy to accept portrait commissions.
She finds inspiration in her new mountain home, 'Taos' truly breathtaking scenery makes it a joy to live here. Capturing the colors of the changing seasons keeps me inspired to go out with my easel and paints, even throughout the cold winters we have here. My deep pleasure from the beauty of nature and the fascinating variety of the human experience instills the hope that I can share that pleasure, through my vision.'
