\"Elise<\/a>Elise Zoller studied architecture at Princeton and practiced in that field for several\u00a0years. She also trained in drawing and oil painting (something she has practiced now\u00a0for 20 years) at The Academy of Realist Art in Boston and Master\u2019s Academy in Springville. \u201cChange is my only constant,\u201d she says. \u201cI get bored if I do one thing for too long and I see no\u00a0reason to fight that.\u201d She tells us 2018 is going to be exciting. \u201cI plan to begin writing and\u00a0illustrating my second young adult book [her first was\u00a0The Tale of Oramus and Jane<\/em>]\u00a0and to change the focus of my oil paintings\u201d from the East Coast to the Salt Lake Valley.<\/p>\n

The play of light is what fascinates her most. \u201cReflected light on buildings is electrifying. . . .\u00a0I hope to move you\u00a0to look more closely at the teeming light that inhabits the space around you. It takes\u00a0time to notice things that are quiet. I want to stop you in your tracks so that you do,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver the last few years I have concentrated on painting architectural landscapes in\u00a0New England, capturing the movement of light on iconic clapboard\u00a0house. . . . My husband and\u00a0I moved to Salt Lake recently and in 2018 I plan to produce a string of architectural\u00a0landscapes centered in [this area]. The light here is bluer than in the East\u00a0and the buildings more orange and red. That will make for fantastic contrasts\u00a0between warm and cool tones,\u201d she explains of her forthcoming work.<\/p>\n

It occurred to this artist\u00a0some years ago\u00a0that she could talk about the light she was\u00a0trying\u00a0to capture in paintings and she\u00a0began\u00a0writing and illustrating\u00a0her first book. \u201cI\u2019m excited to start work on the next, a\u00a0prequel entitled \u2018Fifi\u2019s Pearls.\u2019\u00a0It\u2019s been simmering in the back of my mind for at least\u00a0a year and it\u2019s time to hunker down and do something about that.\u00a0Time to fuel up with more hot black tea. It\u2019s going to be a busy year,\u201d says Zoller.<\/p>\n
