About The Artist

Artist Statement

Beauty is more than just pleasing pattern and color. For me, beauty is also found in rhythms, sounds and light — anything that creates a feeling of calm and sense of awe. I reflexively go through my day looking for patterns and light, and I find them most often while looking at water. This way of looking is my way of bringing a balance to my world, especially in these tumultuous times.  I focus on highlighting the beauty of the abstract composition nature provides, while conjuring the almost musical rhythm of the water and its restorative properties.

Biography

Elizabeth Geisler is an award-winning Bay Area painter best known for her water reflection paintings. Geisler creates images that bridge photorealism and abstraction. Up close, the color use and brushwork read as abstraction, but from a distance, they blend into a more representational depiction. She often uses intense colored underpaintings that show through in varying degrees in the finished piece, which provides an added depth to her paintings. Geisler’s work has shown in group and solo exhibitions throughout the United States and can be found in collections worldwide. She began painting at a young age, and while still in high school, was awarded a life drawing scholarship to the Otis College of Art and Design. In college she studied both visual arts and mass communications, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts from UCLA. She continued her art studies at the San Francisco Art Institute, Barnsdall Art College, and the City College of San Francisco.  Born in Los Angeles, Geisler now resides in the San Francisco Bay Area and works out of her studio in Sausalito, CA.
