Ellen Sherman is an abstract artist working in Ann Arbor, MI.
Ellen began her artistic career as a digital painter and designer for a mobile game studio she helped co-found in 2009. In 2011 she left the position of Art Director behind and dedicated herself to a full time pursuit of exploring the natural world through her paint.
Ellen’s process is water-based and intuitive, and was largely developed during her 10 years of living in Miami, Florida. There she kindled her love of water and a deep fascination and respect for it’s movement and moods. This is explored in her sketches and paintings, where she relies on water as the vehicle for the pigment.
Her work has been displayed and collected across the US and internationally.
When not painting Ellen can be found hiking with her husband and dog, teaching workshops and tackling various home improvement projects.
Ellen received her BFA in Studio Art from Michigan State University and has also studied at Arizona State University.
