Elisa Gomez is a tour de force in production, scale and versatility. Her deeply emotive paintings feel like a modern romance. The muse, a new age heroine who has so much more to present to this time than just a pretty exterior. The deep hues, varying application and dance between heavy and light compositions make her abstract work truly exceptional.
