Testimonials

“Besides obvious technical expertise, Stewart has a great sense of storytelling in even her most abstract works!” M. Lasswell, Director of Theatre, Roosevelt, Chicago, Illinois

“Her work with the nude is provocative, and there is something very intriguing and mysterious in the things she does.”- Jochen Wierich, Ph.D., Curator of Art, Cheekwood Museum of Art, Nashville, TN

“Her paintings are very powerful... poetic, muscular and expressive." - Publisher UK

“E.L.Stewart’s paintings continue to amaze, and to explore social and sexual issues common to all of us.  Her work is gorgeously painted, utilizing the human figure as subject and metaphor as well.  Her lush brushwork sometimes seduces us with it’s fluidity and bravado, and catches the viewer off-guard when we realize what may be actually going on in the social context of the painting.  Her works are stunning, and anyone interested in collecting relatively undiscovered art talent should begin to acquire her work NOW.” - Jerry Dodd - Professor of Art, Texas A &M University

Of E.L.Stewart…” Her work has a very mysterious and provocative element.”Huff Harrington Fine Art, Atlanta, Georgia

“As a collector and fan of E.L.Stewart for almost 15 years, I am consistently struck by her work.  Spend 30 seconds in her figurative world and you will find an immense and emotional purveyance into what it is to be alive (in relationships, on the earth, and in our own personal worlds which few people ever see).  Elsie continues to amaze me with each new work offered up for inspection and introspection…”- Brandon R., Director, Artistic Resources and Technology, Seattle, WA

 “E.L.’s work continues to immerse the viewer in sensual waves and delight the eye with lush coloration.  The questions brought up by the visual dialogue linger long after.  This is great work deserving of a larger audience”- Ken Yuhasz, Mixed Media Sculptor
