Ellie’s Bio

My interest in art started as a child. Drawing was my entertainment, and has continued through four years of Saturday classes at the Toledo Museum of Art, two years of college at the University of Toledo, and various media classes also at the Toledo Museum of Art. For seven years my concentration was on pottery at the museum. I was involved two years selling my pottery in "Crosby Festival of the Arts" at the Toledo Botanical Gardens, and the Sylvania Art Show. Conditions prevented me from doing much in the art field until I retired. Since then I have concentrated in watercolor and pastel, winning various awards in both fields. Taking advantage of lessons not only at Springmaid in S.C., Stonington, Maine and Walnut Creek, Ohio, but also here at the Toledo Artists' Club, with various nationally known artists, has improved my ability. I am a member of the Toledo Artists' Club, the Northwest Ohio Watercolor Society, the Toledo Women's Art League, the Ohio Plein Air Society, the Athena Art Society, the Hyter Portrait Group, and an associate member of the Ohio Watercolor Society. I served as president of the Toledo Women's Art League (2006-2007), vice president of the Toledo Artist's Club (2006-2007), and as president of T.A.C. (2008 and 2009).
