I’m a visual artist inspired by nature, movement, and the quiet beauty of everyday life. From childhood—sketching at my grandparents’ table or rummaging through my mom’s craft supplies—art has been a place of peace, magic, and joy. That same sense of wonder still fuels my work today.
My paintings live between reality and imagination—where fairytales brush against the natural world, and classical technique meets contemporary emotion. Influenced by the intimacy of Vermeer, the romance of Waterhouse, and the color of Monet, I aim to create art that stirs the soul.
Through each piece, I hope to invite you to pause, breathe, and notice the sunlight on the water, the hush of wind through the trees—a quiet reminder of the beauty that’s always been there, waiting to be seen.

Originally from Monterrey, Nuevo León, and currently based in San Antonio, Texas, I am a painter passionate about exploring the diverse language of visual art. My work ranges from figurative to abstract, embracing styles such as realism, impressionism, and expressionism, always with a personal approach that seeks to connect with human emotion and experience.
I primarily work with acrylic and oil, mediums that allow me to experiment with texture, color, and form to express both the tangible and the intangible. Each piece is a journey—sometimes introspective, other times inspired by my surroundings and the people in my life. Through my art, I aim to provoke aesthetic and emotional reflection, creating a visual dialogue that goes beyond words.

“I breathe LIFE into my paintings with vibrancy, devotion and passion – they in turn, most surely give my LIFE meaning and existence.” – Elizabeth Elequin
Elizabeth Elequin is an artist of Scottish, Mexican, Irish and Filipino descent. Her work is as bold and vibrant as the cultures that have filled her life. She creates her work on a grand scale – large paintings of splendid blossoms and botanicals, interwoven with organic patterns that pay tribute to the glory of nature… all culminating in a kaleidoscope of COLORS. But do not confuse her portrayal of flowers, a well-known and well-visited subject-matter, as mundane and expected. Elizabeth’s blooms fill a room with all their colorful grandeur and brilliance. They are whimsical, breath-taking and delicious … they make you LOVE them.
Elizabeth grew up in a military family, moving often. Her father retired in San Antonio, Texas, where she remained for many years. Elizabeth chose to study commercial arts at Texas State University in San Marcos, Texas. However, after she attended her first painting class, she understood her passion lay in the fine arts. She would later marry a U.S. Air Force officer, again moving often but always painting and exhibiting regardless of where they lived. Eventually, she would return to San Antonio, Texas, where she now resides. Elizabeth has exhibited her art in California, Colorado, New York, Florida, New Mexico and Arizona. She is currently showing her work in Texas and New Mexico.
