Serena Elle is a contemporary abstract artist based in Sydney (and mum to a cheeky six-year-old).
With a background in visual arts, she has cultivated a distinctive style through ethereal, earthy compositions and a minimalist palette.
Working in soft tones of sand, clay, and pale sunlight, Serena creates spaces you can fall into — places that feel both familiar and like dreams you almost remember. Her work speaks in quiet shifts: delicate washes, worn textures, and sgraffito markings — like traces of a secret language just beneath the surface.
Serena’s paintings explore stillness — not the kind that stands still, but the kind that moves slowly within you, like light changing in a room or the way landscapes remember footsteps long after they’re gone.
Each piece carries an intentional rawness — a quiet rebellion against perfection — that makes the work feel alive.
Her paintings have been featured in editorial styling collaborations for House & Garden Australia and selected by leading interior designers and stylists for various publications.
She has exhibited across New South Wales and Victoria, with works held in private collections throughout Australia, the United States, and Asia.
Serena is currently developing a new body of work for exhibition.
