With reverence for nature, Ellen's oil paintings invite you into the wilds of Wisconsin. She presents beautifully atmospheric work, creating an almost myth-like reality of a time and place of importance and power. Changing light and the colors it introduces are a personal joy and the often serene quality of scenes of untouched wonders continue as interests in her painting.

I paint to create something different from a subject that is common to you.

I have been painting for a couple of years since I retired. I enjoy painting with various media and a diverse set of subject matter. However, I am drawn to landscape and outdoor scenery. I am sure my art will continue to change and evolve as I learn from others and employ new techniques.

I've been a painter, a weaver, graphic artist but the last ten plus years, I've been making beaded jewelry. I love it. My house is overflowing with one- of a -kind necklace sets, earrings, bracelets and rosaries. Come and join in the fun.

I love incorporating humor and expression into my works based on my experiences. The viewer is invited to add their own experiences to the work.

As a retired meteorologist who was in front of the camera for 37 years, I now enjoy looking at life from behind the lens. I enjoy the interplay of shadows and light, splashes of color, broad landscapes, the tiniest elements of macrophotography, and everything in between.
