Rated a top-10 destination in the U.S. year after year, Carmel-by-the-Sea is an amazing, European-style village nestled above a picturesque white-sand beach, where these lupins were blooming away on a blustery April morning. We often take a drive away from the San Francisco Bay to the Monterey bay and beyond, where you can leave the hustle of the city behind and come back in time a few years. Magic! Y E A R: 2015 S I Z E: 8 X 10 Inches. M A T E R I A L S: Artist quality oil paints, Archival Quality Cotton Canvas Panel. *Artist retains the rights to digital and print reproduction. M Y B A C K G R O U N D: All my paintings are oil on canvas, using mainly palette & painting knives, with thick application, bold strokes, painterly detail and rich colors. The palette knife gives my art a unique combination of contrast, fluidity, depth, texture and impact. I do not typically use a brush, as I prefer the way I can mix buttery paints and smear them on my canvas with a flexible metal blade. The amazing thick texture achieved with the knife reflects the light more than a regular brush painting and gives a beautiful sense of movement, with subtle highlights. I am originally from New Zealand, where the beauty of nature is unsurpassed. The luminescent beauty of my homeland inspires me and I feel it in every stroke. I try to reflect this in my work and invite you to enjoy it as I do. Please visit my website www.lisaelley.com for more information about me, as well as my complete portfolio and testimonials.
