Maffeo, Elizabeth Koval
Elizabeth Koval Maffeo is a freelance artist
who, for nearly 20 years, has been capturing the tranquil spirituality of
nature in her work. Using a watercolor/ gouache technique, each of her
paintings radiates from a central, multifaceted theme with vivid color and
sublime texture.
“In my art, I embrace and
entwine my Japanese heritage with my love for photography and nature by
producing images that capture the essence of cultural mystique and symbolism
through extremely realistic detail.”
Elizabeth’s art is conceived
in a serial format with an in-depth thematic focus. Her diverse love for
symbolism, fantasy and dream imagery pervades each series.
And thus, a new chapter in
this artist’s life has unfolded….
From 1998-2003, Elizabeth
had the opportunity to create art in the 3-D realm while working in Museum
fabrication. During that time, Elizabeth further developed and strengthened
her artistic skills by creating models and natural history dioramas.
Currently, Elizabeth is
painting, working on commissioned sculptures and volunteering at local museums.
