Elsie Nolan is an Irish artist, painting land and seascapes in various media. She studied at Limerick School of Art and Design

Elsie’s art reflects the human experience, revealing the elemental, ethereal and nostalgic; not only the yellow harvested field but the heat coming off it and more, the ghost of a long gone summer day.

Painting what she sees but also what she imbibes, Elsie believes her art is a response to what affects her spirit; a piece of music, a person crying, a kindness, an injustice.
The process becomes meditative and she trusts some deeper sense to release itself into the work, unlocking the truth and seeing more.
