Ella's approach to painting involves the application of abstract ideas with emphasis on texture and abundant color. Ella embraces abstract painting as a form of creation. From a blank canvas, to become something. Her objective while painting is to overlap color using flowing fluids, combined with brush strokes, finger strokes and physical rotation of canvas to create various levels of thickness, thus creating texture. Visit Ella's website for more information.
"Painting gives me the opportunity to express within the art realm, my love of color and explorative nature by intermixing colors to the fullest extent with no boundaries." --Ella Sipho
