Elementerra Art Studio

By Ramona Gregory

Inspired by nature...

Nestled in the woods on Vancouver Island, Ramona Gregory creates art spanning various mediums and styles with an underlying theme rooted in the natural world. Life by the forest and ocean inspire her work, with details such as dimples and tentacles, images of creatures, and carved animal designs appearing on many pieces.

"Forms in nature have served as inspiration, a point from which to let my imagination roam.

I have always felt that despite huge advances in science and technology, there is still much about the world that remains a mystery… unknown and undiscovered, something intrinsic to our being, ephemeral and beautiful. I revel in the possibilities of flora and fauna undiscovered, yet to be discovered or yet to evolve. The strangeness and perfection of some of nature’s solutions such as protective shells, spines and spikes, the specifics of pollination, migration, tentacles and organs, capture my imagination with their spectacle of complexity.

It is this notion of unknown creatures and undiscovered places that I explore in my work." - Ramona
