Artist Reception at the WB Tatter Gallery featuring Ellen Schnell

On Sunday, July 25th from 4-8 PM, The WB Tatter Gallery will be hosting local artist Ellen Schnell for a show of oil paintings capturing people and animals with an emphasis on light and color.

Ellen’s artwork has received numerous awards for her portraits, receiving a Best of Show in the city of Orlando Public Art Show along with another first place in oils. She has received several awards in street painting, winning Best of Show at the Disney Festival of the Masters.

With a style of realism mixed with looser brush strokes, from a distance, her work portrays reality but on closer inspection, the painting maintains a liveliness through brushstrokes of color. Ever concentrating on how light and shadow are portrayed through the use of color.

The work of the artist will stay on exhibit through the following week.
