“Far away in the sunshine are my highest aspirations.I may not reach them, but I can look up and see the beauty,
believe in them and try to follow where they lead”
-Louisa  Alcott

​

Ela is inspired by the idea of enriching and enlightening lives, including her own, with the communication of art.

In our modern day life, it is all too easy to think at times the beauty and goodness of the world has been diminished. But life is what you make it. Ela feels that by putting our attention on the positive aspects of life and strengthening them, we will ensure a better life. Thus, her paintings bring out the inherent richness of the world, combining it with imagination to uplift, inspire and move the feelings of the viewer.

​

Ela was born and educated in Poland, then England, and since 2001 has made Australia home.

Acquiring her Diploma in Design & Photography at Brighton College, England, Ela concentrated on the photographic field, establishing a professional studio and was published and won competitions.
