Artist Elissa Carroll has been oil painting since her early childhood. Throughout her formative years she worked in studio and Plein-Air studying traditional oil painting techniques under the tutelage of a professional artist. She grew up frequenting art galleries, exhibiting and maintaining a strong art foundation and portfolio. Elissa went on to Montserrat College of art in Massachusetts and received her bachelor’s degree in Fine Art, with a minor in design.

After college Elissa created large scale oil paintings and murals for commercial spaces and establishments working with designers and architects, strengthening her understanding of the balance between fine art and interior design.

Elissa currently exhibits in solo and group exhibitions. Her oil paintings can be found in galleries, private homes, historical clubs and luxury home decor boutiques. Elissa’s clients include designers, architects, galleries and private buyers, and she is consistently commissioned for her oil paintings throughout the US. Elissa’s artwork can be viewed through her website.

Since moving to Rye in 2001, Elissa has lived first in the Rye Gardens neighborhood and now resides on Theodore Fremd Avenue.
