Elements: Unlocking Creativity Anywhere, Anytime

In 2020, when the world underwent COVID19 and Sri Lanka was under lockdown, I, as an artist, felt uncertainty and a lack of motivation to paint. I began to sketch alot, trying to stay creative in strange times. I would create quick sketches with a plastic watercolour set. This little box helped me create paintings from anywhere, whenever inspiration struck me. It kept art less intimidating to create.

However, I wanted a more sustainable and local fit for myself and so, I begin to explore the possibility of creating a locally made, sustainable art supply that would also help other creatives find their lost passion and motivation.

And so, Elements was launched in April 2020.

With Elements, you can carry your creativity with you, journaling your adventures and experiences, capturing every inspiration that surrounds you, whilst remaining eco conscious.

Elements can now be found in 7 stores across the island of Sri Lanka and ships worldwide.
