Capturing beauty and light through landscapes and abstract art

I'm Elly, an artist from Ōhope, New Zealand, and I love capturing our beautiful landscapes and creating abstract art to bring more beauty to the world.

Open Studios

All my work is available to view in person at my home studio in Ōhope.  During Winter and Spring I plan to have open studios most months, usually one or two Saturdays.  However, I can open up almost any day if you send me a message.  Check out my process, my works in progress and a few goodies that don't make it onto my website!

The Framer Gallery

Several of my paintings, including the four remaining unsold works from my latest series, "Layers of Becoming", are currently on display at The Framer Gallery in Whakatāne.  

This series was created through a time lapse canvas process - layered moods and thoughts in layers on the canvas - each painting in this series explores different facets of my journey of becoming. Featuring abstract forms, layered textures and soft palettes, these paintings are not about resolution, but about presence, about what was and what is emerging, an invitation to feel, reflect, and witness your own becoming 💕

Healing isn’t linear - it’s layered and textured - it’s quiet and loud, soft and sharp, all at once. This new series is a visual meditation on the emotional landscapes we move through as we mend, remember and re-emerge.

Rotorua Rotary Passport - Expressions Art Exhibition 2025

I have four paintings being exhibited as part of this year's Rotary Rotorua "Expressions Art Show".  This is happening for one night only, on Friday the 29th of August, 2025.  It will be held at Ebbett Rotorua Showroom, hopefully you're lucky enough to get an invitation!
