  • Artist: Consuelo (Connie) Yuisa Deus

Consuelo Yuisa Deus is a contemporary visual artist whose vibrant, whimsical work blends cultural , figurative, street art, and fantasy to spark joy and curiosity. Born and raised in New York City and now based in Elyria, Ohio, Consuelo holds a B.A. in Arts with a concentration in Web Programming, Digital Media, and Graphic Design. Her creative journey began early—drawing on the walls of her bedroom since she could hold a crayon and was inspired by her mother’s stories of life in Puerto Rico. These early influences shaped her colorful whimsical style, rich with cultural pride. Her work has been displayed at the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) in Cleveland, Ohio. She's also been published in The Best of 3d Design by Rockport Publishing. Consuelo, also known as Connie, has contributed to several community art mural projects and middle / high school theater productions as a scenic and prop designer. Consuelo is also an active member of The Cleveland Haunt Club, where she creates sculptural art inspired by the Halloween genre, which has been featured in various television and online media. She also has a whimsical mural on display at the downtown Elyria Public Library. And in summer 2025, she will be one of four juried artists featured in the Firelands Association for the Visual Arts , Oberlin Chalk Walk, where she will create a live chalk mural. Consuelo Yuisa Deus invites viewers to step into her colorful world—where culture meets imagination, and every piece tells a story.
