About

I graduated from Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design in 2001 with a BFA in painting and printmaking. After working a corporate job for several years, the birth of my son, and many crazy adventures I began to pursuemaking art for a living. Part of this plan meant aquiring additional skill sets (read: I took a few graphic design classes, read a bunch of books and messed around on my new mac).

Currently, I run my own business (www.elsiosodesign.com) and spend whatever extra time I have making art. I love that I can be creative  with my business and working for myself has given me the confidence to really dive in with what will hopefully (and eventually) become a full time art making adventure.

Here you will see various stages of finished and unfinished pieces. Along with fun, sketchy stuff. Currently, I work with water based medias on either hand dyed paper or wood.

I am working on updating this website as soon as humanly possible. Please check back often.
