Elf Evans – Photo Maker


Elf Evans began his artistic career in Santa Monica, California as an Abstract Expressionist Painter inspired by artists from the New York School of painting. He attended Hollywood Art Centre School on the GI Bill, and also studied commercial photography at Santa Monica City College. Working as an assistant to such fine photographers as Andrew “Andy” Strauss in Los Angeles, and later for Jeff Hicks in Los Gatos, California has helped Elf develop his unique “Styll Lyfe” style of studio compositions.

Colour and lighting are the immediate methods of distinguishing his techniques from other photographers. And since moving to France in 2008 he has continued to exhibit, impress and strive for the ever illusive best possible ingredients for his compositions....much like a talented 'chef' choosing the right elements for a fine meal.

A key feature of his work is not to overcrowd his images with too many features, thus allowing the viewer to use their mind, eyes, and intellect to guide them around his spacial compositions. The paintings of Piet Mondrian often appear to have influenced Elf by his use of primary colours, and understated placement of models in his work(s). Working often with Mannequin Heads and Musical Instruments to convey meanings far beyond the typical floral arranging ideas employed by many, he brings to life the energy hidden inside these unmoving subjects. Viewers often sense the peace and surreal nature of his works long after their first encounter and return for more.



Karo Evans est une photographe et un peintre abstrait expressionniste, qui a été élevée dans des pays différents et a pris le meilleur de chaque culture. Elle a étudié la photographie à Londres, Royaume-Uni, et est allé aux Beaux Arts en France, avant de partir en Angleterre.
Elle vit actuellement sur la côte nord de la Bretagne en France, et est toujours prête pour de nouveaux défis. Elle apprécie particulièrement le processus créatif des photographies de "Natures Mortes", et travaille beaucoup avec les miroirs et le verre dans ses compositions. «L'art est un Must pour rester en vie" sont ses mots préférés.
"Être en vie" dans ce monde, exister,et pour cela, il est impératif d'être en mesure de créer.
La Création... ce processus est assimilé à une grossesse. Après un temps différent pour chaque oeuvre, le travail se fait et l'oeuvre naît, livrée, et offerte aux spectateurs.
Les peintres, qu'elle le plus appréciés quand elle était jeune, furent: Bosch, Bruegel, les préraphaélites, et les expressionnistes abstraits. Elle "chasse la lumière", sur la côte nord de Bretagne, où son cœur bat pour l'aube et le soleil couchant, l'architecture, les scènes nautiques dont on peut se peut nourrir. Les "fractales" sont une partie de ses autres passions ainsi que les manipulations de photographies.
Cette année, elle a été quatre fois reconnue dans des compétitions d'art, internationalement, et la dernière peinture récompensée, de la 5ieme place, dépeint les abus faits aux femmes, dont elle suit la cause, ayant travaillé entre autre pour SOS Femmes Battues à Marseille. Le titre de sa peinture :" Regards de Femme", qui est une peinture, "mixed media", qui fût exposée également, à la Salle Pablo Picasso en Mai 2010 à Dinard.
Dans son portfolio, vous pourrez voir, des "digigraphies epson", (voir sur le site français digigraphies epson), des giclées, des photographies sur papier et sous verres, des peintures abstraites expressionnistes, des peintures digitales, et des fractales.
Vous pouvez la contacter au 06.98.63.83.26 or 33+698638326
