Fresh Eyes Artist Spotlight: Elias Laughton

A native of San Francisco, Elias found himself a resident of Mendocino County in the early 1980’s, where he joyfully resides. “Having no formal training in the Arts, I feel unbound by convention, and my creative process is liberated from expectations of a certain aesthetic outcome...I was fortunate to discover an Acrylic Pouring workshop being offered by local artist Rossi Jensen in August of 2018, and I’ve been painting ever since.”

Elias describes his art as “experimental abstract” and tries to explore the relationship between the seen, and the Unseen. “As an abstract artist, I chose to limit my own personal influence upon my audience, and instead, allow the paints and mediums to create the composition...”

Elias also proudly donates 10% of his total sales to the Anderson Valley Animal Rescue society.
