Scenes From Home
By Ellie Wyeth
Artist bio:
Ellie’s career began many years ago as free-lance illustrator designing notecards, invitations and illustrations for private customers and small businesses in NYC and Princeton, NJ. Clients included Rutgers University Press, The Eagleton Institute, John McPhee’s short story, Irons in the Fire, first featured in The New Yorker, and many other publications and organizations.
After working for five years at an artist residency in Umbria, Italy where she painted landscapes and still life in oil and acrylic, Ellie began to wonder about applying her artistic skills to more functional objects.
Over the years she adapted her painterly style and vivid colors to the floor and the table, creating distinctive custom-made floorcloths and placemats. She traveled extensively from Baltimore to Boston exhibiting her work at Fine Art craft fairs, including the American Craft Council, Paradise City Arts Festival, as well as many others.
Using flora and fauna, she creates a storybook world with whimsy and humor painting in saturated colors adding to the joyful nature of each piece.
Ellie has a growing collection of paintings, custom portraits of friends and family and private commissions.
