Hi, My Name is Elle

About
With a keen interest in art and creativity since I was a child, I had a love of drawing and painting from a very young age.
This usually involves watercolours and fine liners but I have also explored acrylics alongside other craft materials like Macrame, felt and crochet.
Further exploring this creative interest I attended college to study ND Multimedia which included; Art History, Life Drawing, Print & Website Design, as well as Photography.
Continuing this direction at university, refining my understanding of Print and Digital Design; alongside further Life Drawing and Design History.
I received a BA in Graphic Communication when graduating in 2011.
I discovered yoga in 2012 and attended weekly classes on and off up until 2019, when I decided to deepen my understanding and practice of yoga, by signing up for a teacher training course at the Mandala Yoga Ashram in Carmarthenshire.
I graduated in 2022, becoming a certified Yoga Teacher.
I took the opportunity advance my creativity and skill set, when coming across a job advertisement for a 'Digital Printer' in 2018.
I gain much experience as well as enjoyment, immersing myself within this creative environment, up until the businesses closure as of February 2025.
Aside from art and yoga, I also enjoy spending time in nature; which usually involves getting barefoot, climbing trees and paddling my feet in a variety of water sources!
I also have interests in bouldering, rope climbing and surfing; which I enjoy participating in with friends.
