My Happy Place is in Nature
Artist, Self Awareness Guide & Intuitive Facilitator
Ersilia is the Founder of The Laneway Studios. For a number of years, she has been creating spaces to support multi passionates and sensitive creators to do more of what they love. Asked by the current owners of the Laneway to bring some creativity to an underutilised building that had been empty for 3 years she has made a studio within the building.
Ersilia never set out to become an artist. She was drawn to it. Through creating spaces for others it fueled her own inner artist. About 5 years ago, she simply felt an urge to draw. Beginning with mandalas - circles unfolding into patterns, shapes and forms - something opened up in her.

Australia Inspired my journey
"Creating became a way of finding calm, focus and freedom. It gave me a place to step away from thinking, reconnect with myself and listen to my intuition. "A period of grief I needed an outlet for my emotions".
From England having spent many years travelling and living in France and Italy, she often explored Rome and the romantic paintings of the masters. She now lives amid the rocky landscape of White Peak,Geraldton that became the core of what she does, art for wellbeing and to inspire connection to ones own deep self.
Her art reflects her feminine nature often painting florals and gentle abstracts. It has been described as ethereal stirring an emotional response where someone can get lost in an idea and imagination.
An intuitive artist which means she paints from a place of flow, letting what wants to come onto the canvas emerge.

Creating is a way to find calm, focus and freedom
Today her creative practice moves between paper, oil, acrylic, board and canvas, with flowers becoming a particularly powerful and recurring inspiration. For her flowers represent so much more than beauty. they speak of spirituality, connection, evolution and the incredible strength of nature - the tiny seed pushing its way through the earth, finding the light and eventually blooming. "they remind me of my journey of simplicity, resilience and the natural world"
