About

I’m Elaine, illustrator of dark fantasy and doomed love. I’m known for working in a chiaroscuro style, and I’m drawn to highly emotive art in dramatic light and shadow.

I graduated with a degree in Psychology and nearly sent off my application to law school. The whole process filled me with unhappiness that I couldn’t explain at the time, and I took a year off to find out what I really wanted to do. I discovered art.

I worked as a concept artist for Universal Studios theme parks, Warner Bros. Abu Dhabi, Disney VR, and various other virtual reality experiences (Mission: ISS, Blade Runner 2049).

After a few years of working on other people’s stories, I wanted to tell my own.

My work has been featured in Spectrum 24, Infected by Art 7 & 8, Deviantart and Tumblr. I won the 1st Place Artist Choice Award at Dragoncon 2019.
