About Elise Burrows

I am a Sunnyvale artist. I grew up in Massachusetts, and lived in Vermont for many years.

I attended Oberlin College and The University of Vermont, where I received a degree in studio art and psychology.

My paintings and drawings have been in many shows, over the years.

I use vivid colors and bold contrasts, to convey the feelings evoked by the subject.

I like losing myself in the process of creating. It’s also a fun challenge, like solving a puzzle. And I get a kick out of how art connects me to other artists, as well as people who enjoy my work.

My sketchbook is full of drawings. I bring it with me when I travel. Some places I have been are Austria, Nicaragua, France, and around the U.S.
