Meet the Artist

Elysa Espinoza is a dynamic artist whose work transcends traditional boundaries, blending vibrant colors, bold textures, and evocative imagery to create pieces that connect to the soul. Born with an innate love for art, Elysa has spent her life exploring different mediums and styles, constantly pushing the limits of her creativity.

Growing up, Elysa found solace in art, using it as a means to navigate and express the complexities of her world. Over the years, her work has evolved into a powerful exploration of themes like nature, culture, and the human experience, often with a touch of the surreal and the whimsical. Her unique style is marked by a love for bold contrasts, whether it’s the interplay of light and dark, the merging of life and death, or the juxtaposition of the familiar with the fantastical.

Elysa’s art is a reflection of her deep connection to the world around her. Inspired by the beauty of everyday moments and the rich cultural tapestry of her heritage, she creates pieces that are not only visually striking but also rich in meaning and emotion. Whether it’s a serene landscape bathed in the glow of twilight, a vibrant ristra hanging against a sun-drenched wall, or a playful sloth enjoying a cup of coffee, Elysa’s work invites viewers to see the world through her eyes—where beauty is found in the details, and every piece tells a story.

Based in Albuquerque, Elysa continues to create art that resonates with a wide audience, exhibiting her work both locally and online. When she’s not painting, you can find her gathering inspiration in the great outdoors, or spending time with her family, who are her biggest supporters.

Elysa’s art has been featured on TikTok, Instagram, and within local non-profit agencies. She is constantly exploring new ways to connect with her audience, whether through original paintings, prints, or custom commissions. Her work is a celebration of life’s contrasts—its joys, its sorrows, its beauty—and an invitation to embrace the wonder and magic in the world around us.
