About Njela's Work

Njela was born in East Africa and spent her childhood surrounded by the wild and beautiful African landscape. She has undoubtedly been influenced by this dramatic environment with her use of bold colour and form throughout many of her works. One of the best examples of this is the mixed media painting entitled 'Africa', which uses a collage of images, to represent her vision of the country.

Her passion for art has now become a full time career and she enjoys spending time both in her studio and out in the Surrey countryside, sourcing inspiration from nature. Indeed, all of her paintings can be seen to take inspiration from nature in one form or another.
