As a self-taught artist working in oils, without the confines of formal training, creativity flourishes allowing for a contemporary style that evolves organically. The richness of oil paint invites experimentation, and while challenging, is imbued with the freedom to create and embrace mistakes as integral to the artistic process.

Oil painting landscapes and still life presents a wonderful opportunity to capture the beauty of nature and the abundance of Ella’s own garden and surroundings. Her background as a florist further informs her work, as she draws on her understanding of colour, composition, and the ephemeral nature of blooms.

Ella loves to paint en plein air, or in her South Gloucestershire studio if weather is not on her side!
