Wendy Kathleen McElfish ~
About the Woman Who Believes in Angels and Fairies

 “Painting for me is a very spiritual experience. It is like breathing, for I require both for living. I wish for my art to bring beauty, reflection, mystery, contemplation and the feeling of the divine to people’s lives."

Mix a touch of bohemian, a dash of fairy and a slight shade of gloom and what do you get? Wendy Kathleen McElfish. Nestled in the fast paced world of the O.C. California, Wendy has carved out a fairytale existence for her two elfin fairy boys, husband and two puppy dogs. It is here at her studio that she gleams inspiration from the fairy neighborhood children that gather around her home and garden.

From her earliest memories Wendy was drawn into the world of art and fairytales, gathering her skills and inspiration from her mother’s drawings and stories. Her mother would patiently guide and encourage Wendy’s work, while inspiring her imagination with stories. It was also her mothers love of ice skating that first lead Wendy onto the ice.

What started as afternoon group ice skating lessons soon grew into private lessons, early morning practices and competitions. As with so many young skaters around the world, Wendy dreamed of going for the Gold. For nine years, Wendy dedicated her life to the sport of figure skating. Her dream was cut short at 15, when she became sick and was unable to train at the level she had.

It was at this time that she discovered a new love. Art began to fill the hole that skating had left. With as much passion as she had shown for skating, she began to illustrate through a paint brush. During high school, Wendy’s love and passion for art grew and took root. Her university years, Wendy refined and expanded her skills through art classes and her own studies. She receive a B.A. in English and M.A. in Education from Pepperdine University.

The birth of her son brought about a renewed connection to the unseen spiritual world and love for the purity of all things innocent. The McElfish baby boys have become the muse for which Wendy Kathleen channels her paintbrush and creates. Wendy Kathleen now wishes to share this joy of innocence and enchantment with the world through her art works. “Painting for me is a very spiritual experience. It is like breathing, for I require both for living. I wish for my art to bring beauty, reflection, mystery, contemplation and the feeling of the divine to people’s lives."
