The Work, and the Way

Alisha Wielfaert is an artist and teacher whose work is shaped by intuition, layered process, and a deep affection for materials. Watercolor, acrylic, oil pastel, pencil, and graphite are built up, scraped back, softened, and reworked — traces of what came before always allowed to remain.

Her paintings are less about arriving at an image and more about staying in conversation with what’s unfolding. Color leads. Texture follows. Meaning arrives quietly.

Themes of healing, tenderness, strength, and becoming run through her work, reflecting a belief that art can hold complexity without needing to explain itself.

Alongside her studio practice, Alisha teaches watercolor and facilitates creative experiences for women, encouraging process over outcome and curiosity over perfection.

Her work offers a pause — a place to breathe, feel, and remember what it’s like to move at the speed of your own attention.
