Hi there!
Thanks for stopping by. My hope in the coming months is to share more about what is going on in the studio, inspirational finds, and upcoming exhibitions and other studio related events.
You can sign up for the Studio Newsletter here and find me on Bluesky Social too.
As always, thank you for following along.
Cheers,
Forrest
Forrest Elliott is a contemporary painter whose work explores the dynamic relationships between colors and how they are translated through the act of seeing onto a two-dimensional surface. Guided by both intuition and a deep connection to color, his paintings often emerge through an intuitive painting process that invites presence, trust, and creative flow.
He received his B.F.A. from the University of New Hampshire with a minor in History, and his work has been featured in Clover + Bee, DesignSponge, and Studio Visit, among other publications.
In addition to his painting practice, Forrest offers Reiki Healing & Intuitive Painting Sessions and Intuitive Painting Retreats & Workshops that merge energy work with the creative process helping individuals reconnect with their inner voice, release creative blocks, and translate personal energy into visual form. He is also the co-curator at Blue Door Gallery in York, Maine, and works as a creative consultant and interior designer for private clients and non-profits. This multidisciplinary approach allows him to bring a refined sense of color, composition, and atmosphere to both visual art and interior spaces.
Forrest is represented by Blue Door Gallery in York, Maine, Kennedy Gallery, and Nahcotta in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. His work is held in private collections across the United States and internationally, including Balmain, NSW, Australia, and Hong Kong, China.
He currently works full-time from his home studio in York, Maine.
