ELIZABETH WISEMAN
After a long career making theater, I have come home to the easel. I love the solitude of painting - so unlike the peopled craft of making theater. Each canvas presents me with an empty stage waiting for its particular story to unfold. Theater employs all of the arts and, as a writer/director, I had to envision the whole picture: set, lights, color, sound, and actors. Everything influences movement, tension, and story-line on the stage.
My paintings are abstract or impressionistic with a theatrical quality that evokes an emotional response; the response that comes from recognition of something familiar, but larger than one can fully grasp. I seek to touch a universal chord that captures the personal conflicts at the heart of the human story.
I returned to painting after a long hiatus, in 2015. PLEASE VISIT MY WEBSITE @ elizabethwiseman.com. OR info@elizabethwiseman.com
