Flavour Dimensions: 102cmx76cm Talofa lava. My name is Ele Saofia I come from a family of 4 brothers and 2 school teachers (my apologies - I meant 2 sisters, I can never tell the difference). I am Samoan/Chinese, born in Samoa but raised in New Zealand, and have recently relocated from Sydney Australia. Ten years down under and I am very proud to say that I have returned home with my kiwi accent intact! (No offence to our Aussie friends). I am a self taught artist and have been drawing for as long as I can remember but have recently taken up art seriously. I owe my natural drawing skills to my parents who have been an inspiration in my life, always reminding me of our humble beginnings. It is no wonder that most of my work is on people entwined in cultural motif - Capturing the moment, framing a thought, a warm smile, a beautiful gesture - merged with a tinge of pacific flavour. So join me on this colourful journey to capture and embrace the moments in life through the eyes of this artist... Ele Saofia |
