September 2022 Featured Artist Member of the Month: Ellen Schauer of Lake Elsinore, California
Ellen’s favorite part of being an artist is the challenge. She loves the continual process of problem-solving that comes from trying to convey her artistic expression. With a strong analytical background, that process comes as naturally to her as the movements of her hand, and keeps her tantalizingly engaged. Although inspired by the swishes and swirls of nature’s natural Fibonacci, Ellen finds it especially intriguing when man-made objects unintentionally mimic this elegant flow in light, shadow and reflection… as if trying to achieve balance where the spirit of nature would otherwise be broken. Ellen strives for a looser more impressionistic feel to her art while still trying to achieve the impression of realism. Toward that goal she continues to add the detail that attracts her collectors, yet with more free-spirited mark making.Â
