Gemma Elliston

From a young age, I developed a passion for art and creativity, often spending my evenings drawing inspiration from storybooks and beloved pets. Over the years, I explored various styles and mediums, but it was during college that I truly discovered my love for drawing animals. Captivated by the challenge of capturing pets in hyperrealism for an art project, I found joy in an intricate form of expression.

In 2020, I relocated to the picturesque countryside of Yorkshire where I live with my husband and Golden Retriever, Teddie. We bought and renovated a house- a dream come true for me- which amplified my interest in interior design. Inspired by the stunning Yorkshire landscape, I discovered my style: cottagecore, farmhouse, and the charm of the English countryside.

 

In my spare time, I am an avid crafter and reader, immersing myself in the worlds of fantasy that endlessly spark my imagination and creativity.

Throughout the years, my artwork has developed, drawing upon all these elements that bring me joy. It is through my paintings that I endeavor to evoke the same sense of wonder and feeling from you as the viewer.
