About Me

Elisheva's path into artistry began when she was 4 years old. She was raised by professional artists - her mother is a sculptress and father a painter. When Elisheva was 5 years old, her parents moved to Atlanta to further advance their art careers. Her mother started her in ballet and performing arts, however, she found artistic inspiration in class and would draw teachers, friends.

Elisheva was mostly non-verbal as a child, but would sing, dance and draw. A peculiar gift that Elisheva has always had, was her ability to draw people and real objects from imagination. Through the years, school teachers would notice that she would draw advanced detailed things from imagination, while not being interactive in class. This prompted teachers to encourage her parents to mentally evaluate Elisheva and test her IQ. 

It was discovered that Elisheva has Synesthesia and neurodiversity. Her parents then pulled her out of Public School and placed her into Private Arts School. She also joined the Freddie Hendricks Youth Ensemble of Atlanta where she performed in musical theatre performances such as, "Soweto Soweto! A Township is Calling". She formed many artistic and musical friendships, which gave her more inspiration.

After high school graduation, she traveled internationally to explore the culture of her friends from Australia and India where she gained more inspiration and discovered that she loves to connect with people of different backgrounds. After traveling, Elisheva attended Harrisburg Area Community College for Graphic Design, but only attended for one year due to flunking Painting II. This discouragement caused her to realize her free-spirit nature is to create art without following rules. 

She moved back to Atlanta and began selling paintings, commissioning, hosting paint and sip parties, and performing at live painting events. She has built and maintained friendships with many notable creatives in the music and art industry due to their like-mindedness on freedom from inhibitions.

Elisheva Pierce is a self-taught artist whose work is inspired by music, dance, and culture. Her creative exploration stems from experiences and events inside and outside of her culture, applying a variety of ideas based on her knowledge of self and understanding of the world. Her work stands out for its femininity, cultural influence, banter, emotionalism, passion, and vibrancy.
