I love making art to express myself, relax and meditate often listening to music. I love those moments when all can happen, the shapes come.

I love to draw, and paint with oil or water colors, acrylics, inks or pastels. I also like to experiment different kinds of supports, to mix media or make collages. Otherwise, not sure what I prefer : landscapes will evocate an athmosphere, a sensation or a feeling. For portraits, I will try to catch something that moving me more than an exact likeness. More over I enjoy decorating objects (My widows …). If you would like to see more, please visit my website : https://elisehughesmonneau.com
Where do you find inspiration?I could find inspiration in everything, especially travelling, landscapes, people and memories, feelings and emotions. Photos are a good source of inspiration. As I studied art history when I was younger and as I am still curious I also find ideas and inspiration in the work of others painters or in other kinds of arts. Obviously what could happen around the world or politic matters impact me and push me sometimes to draw or paint.
What would you do with $25,000?I would be happy to have some money to finance paints, supports, internet sites or books … I would take time to think seriously about it anyway. I would like it to be as helpfull as possible regarding circumstances.
