Fran Elliott

Fran specialises in watercolour and acrylic works that are inspired by the natural world. After Studying at Leeds College of Art, she has built a reputation for impressionistic treatment of figurative works. She works quickly, with a freedom of expression in her brush work and mark-making that brings her subject matter of birds, animals and landscapes to life.
