CURRENT FESTIVAL ARTIST

ELISE MULLER

ARTIST STATEMENT

I was so excited to make original Lino Prints for Huntsville Festival of the Arts.  Since I moved to Muskoka 24 years ago, the HfA has been an important organization for me providing amazing concerts as well as work opportunities for me such as Arts Walk, Nuit Blanche North, Art Crawl, and En Plein Air Market.  The theme this season is ‘We Got You Covered’ and I had fun rendering my own records for the brochure cover.  First I did sketches followed by carving lino blocks and printing them with ink on paper and fabric.

BIO

My name is Elise Muller and I work with Ink/Stone/Metal out of Stone Tree Studio near Dorset.  I fell in love with Printmaking over 30 years ago as an art student and never stopped Printing and I am a member of the recently formed Muskoka Printmaker Collective.  I am also known as an award-winning Sculptor showing in Public Art shows across Ontario and in the East Coast.   My formal art training is from Ballyfermot S.C. in Dublin, McMaster University, and Haliburton School of Art + Design where I am a Part-Time Faculty Member.
