Hi friend!
I'm Mina Elise,
a Hartford based
fine artist & illustrator.
(I promise I am not as serious as I look)
Though I have dabbled in many mediums, I specialize in watercolor, and colored pencil. As an incredibly passionate creator, I aim to create vibrant, meaningful and useful work for my variety of friends, family and clients.
I utilize my strengths in portraiture, hand lettering, and botanical illustration to tell stories and shed light on the beauty or pain I see in this world. I don't have it all figured out, and that's okay! Follow along as I share my growth and progress with you while I become more and more settled into myself as a queer artist of color.
