Meet Ellie...

I’m a self-taught artist exploring life and emotions through paint, sculpture, sewing and digital art, blending mediums to express what words can’t.

A little about me

Like most kids....

I loved to draw. Most of my early art was of animals. Here's one of my first dog portraits titled, "I'm a dog".

Ellie, Age 2

By age 4, I began adding bodies.

(Ellie, Do you remember anything particular about drawing when you were 4? Were you drawn more to drawing than other kids? Did you get lost in your art? Or just feel like a normal kid coloring?)

Ellie, Age 4

I continued developing my art by reading books and practicing.

(Ellie, Anything to add about this time period?)

Commissioned Pet Portraits

In 2024, I began doing a handful of pet portrait commissions. Each one has given me the chance to practice, improve and get lost in the flow of a growing creative practice.
