Elizabeth Sapre

I work primarily in oils on canvas or a masonite panel. Examples of these are The Bride Reclining, The Guitarist, The Ballerina.  However, I have worked using other media such as acrylics [The Naval Officer] watercolors, graphite pencil [The Lady Wearing A Pearl Necklace], pastel [The Girl Wearing The Sunflower Hat] and prismacolor colored pencils [At The Beach].  I like to build up the layers to create a finished appearance in as realistic a way as I can possibly accomplish.

I am also able to create three dimensional sculptures of figures which vary in size between 12 and 24 inches in height.  I currently use as my medium a modeling compound, the main components of which are clay, plaster and papier mache, applying one layer at a time.  Each successive layer is allowed to dry and the final sculpture has a tough, durable texture.

I am continually learning and endeavoring to develop and improve my craft.
