Sophia Elise is a self-taught artist living in New Zealand with her two children. She balances her love of painting with working as a nurse and managing the NZ Art Guild. She has been involved in numerous exhibitions and also selected as a finalist in several NZ Art Awards. Her art can be found in select NZ galleries and is held in many international art collections.
Sophia has two very distinct styles of art. She is an extremely tactile person and this love of texture is reflected in her heavily textured minimalist abstract paintings which often incorporate resin. Her other distinctive style is created entirely with hand painted dots which result in very funky detailed artwork with an almost aboriginal feel to them.
Sophia’s inspiration is drawn from the depths of her emotions and forged with her environment and experiences making her uniquely, original art a window into her soul. 'If my art can reach into the soul of another and emotionally and spiritually touch that person, then it’s all worthwhile '
