Elise Mendelle

My work is about capturing a moment in time and expanding that moment; by looking deeper within a painting to discover a thought, feeling or emotion, the viewer can explore and anticipate what comes next.

Explore my oil on canvas pieces and discover something that is meaningful to you. I want my buyers to instantly recognise something within each piece that transports them to a place of introspection and discovery, where they think about their current situation and how it relates to what they see in the painting.

"Your art is amazing. The personalities of the subjects jump off the canvas. So impressed."

"Thank you so much, it's absolutely beautiful ? My husband loves it, too! It's going to be admired for years to come! We're very grateful"

"Very:) and the quality of your work! Exquisite:)"

Thank you! Can’t believe I wasn’t following you before today! Your use of the negative space is wonderful ♥️"

My art career has grown organically, and being an emerging artist is a great source of excitement and pleasure for me.

Interest in my work has grown and my paintings are now part of collections around the world, including collectors in the USA, Canada, Australia, South Africa, Italy and more.
