Visual Artist

Ellen Downing

I've been painting for eight years. While being an artist is a difficult tug-of-war between my inner dreamer and critic, I've grown to love this process a lot. It hasn't just taught me much about the world, but also about myself.

My Canvas

I specialize in oil on canvas and abstract concepts.

While I've been trained in different mediums, I found a deep connection to traditional paintings. I love how it communicates so much of the creator to the audience. Ironically, the communication feels easier in the abstract.
