About Elaine…

Creativity has always been my soul’s way of communicating.

Whether I’m drawing, painting, wood burning, or playing video games that transport me to other worlds, I’ve always been drawn to art that makes me feel something. My first major inspiration? The stunning intro to Final Fantasy IX. It ignited a desire to craft beauty and meaning through visual storytelling.

Since then, I’ve followed my passion through a winding and colorful career—from animation school to film studios, VR labs, and engineering firms. I’ve led large teams across the U.S., Canada, India, and Australia, helping bring imaginative projects to life.

Each chapter—whether as a caricature artist at Sea World, a project manager at PlayStation, or a breast cancer survivor balancing health and high-stakes deadlines in Sydney—has deepened my love for creative problem-solving and meaningful connection.

Now, I’m weaving everything I’ve learned into this space. It’s part portfolio, part playground—a place where I share my work, my art, my garden, and my ever-growing collection of passion projects. My goal is simple: to express my soul and share my art.
