Indigo Art Studio is an inspiring space where artists of all ages and abilities are welcome to explore, learn and enjoy the creative process through their own individual, unique art journey.
Owner and Creative Director, Elizabeth Welch, earned her BFA degree from Colorado State University (Go, Rams!) with a concentration in Graphic Design and minor in Art History. From there she had a rewarding and award-winning career in advertising art, in Colorado, Washington, D.C., and Austin, Texas, working for such clients as National Geographic, Apple, The Smithsonian Institute, National Football League Players Association, and The Pentagon.
A move with her family to the Triad area in 2005 opened a new door for Elizabeth – that of art teacher, and for over 15 years she has enjoyed sharing her love of art and the creative process with budding artists in Greensboro.
Along the way, Elizabeth has assisted many of those students with preparation and gaining acceptance into area and national art schools and programs, as well as helping them to successfully secure lucrative scholarships. Programs that students under Elizabeth’s tutelage have gone on to attend include Weaver Academy, North Carolina School of the Arts, SCAD, Clemson University School of Architecture, Arts and Humanities, Virginia Tech School of Architecture and Design, UNC-Greensboro College of Art and Design, Liberty University Studio & Digital Arts Program, NCState University College of Design, Pratt Institute, California Institute of the Arts, Full Sail Academy, Meredith College Studio Art, UNC-Charlotte School of Architecture, USC School of Visual Art and Design, and many more.
