Elisa Huberman

Elisa Huberman was born in The Bronx in 1989 and lives on City Island. Elisa has been generating art since she was five years old. Her dream was to continue making art, and in 2011 she began attending Pure Vision Arts where she has been prolifically drawing, painting and making sculptural figures and elaborate dioramas. Elisa is also a writer and illustrator of children’s books. Her story, The Odd Duckling, describes her own personal experiences being a child with autism. Elisa has given numerous readings of her book to enthusiastic audiences, and also created an animated short film, bringing the book to life. Much of Elisa’s inspiration comes from her fondness of animals, both real and mythical. Her focus is to create personal work from her own vast imagination and to continue to continue to establish her own artistic voice.
