ABOUT:

Elesha Searles.
I am a self taught artist who enjoys using acrylic and watercolours to create bright beautiful paintings.

I take a lot of my inspiration from nature and geometrical patterns and enjoy experimenting with abstract themes.

Art connects me to the world around me, grounds me when I feel overwhelmed and acts as a meditation and a mindful experience.I enjoy sharing my work with others and encouraging everyone to give it a go.

WORKS:

SUPPORT WORKING CLASS CREATIVES (1).png

'Working Class Creatives' responds to a need which is too often overlooked in the arts; that of the barriers facing working-class artists from getting on in our sector. They are instrumental in initiating much-needed change that will see the art world become more inclusive and reflect the society it purports to serve. I often search their database in my research, it is a vital resource for any arts professional working in culture today. That they have got this far on so little financial resource is remarkable and I am excited to see what they will achieve with further support.” Beth Hughes, Curator, Arts Council Collection.
