DESCRIPTION:Join us for coffee\, snacks\, and an opportunity to meet our ne
 w sanctuary artist\, Ellen Cohen! Explore a collection of artwork created 
 over the past 15 years\, featuring exquisitely detailed botanical illustra
 tions\, photorealistic paintings\, sketches\, and landscapes. Ellen’s wo
 rk reflects a deep appreciation for the beauty of the natural world and th
 e precision of scientific illustration.\nCome meet Ellen\, enjoy her artwo
 rk\, and help us welcome her to our community!\nEllen's Artist Bio:\nThis 
 show represents artwork that Ellen has done\, intermittently\, over the pa
 st 15 years. Many of these pieces were created as assignments for her Bota
 nical Illustration Certification Program at the NC Botanical Garden in Cha
 pel Hill (2010-2012).\nAs can be seen\, Botanical Illustration requires a 
 very technical accuracy in the rendering of each subject.  It represents 
 a scientific investigation and description of a plant which could be used 
 in a scientific textbook or journal.  It requires the utmost discipline\,
  documenting every aspect of the subject as it would appear in a photograp
 h.\nIn other pieces\, Ellen continued this same Photo Realism to depict su
 bject matter of non-botanical objects or creatures.  The landscapes show 
 a bit more freedom of expression\, although still remaining in the genre o
 f Photo Realism.\nIn many cases\, paintings and sketches were done using h
 er own photographs while others were done using real objects or live plant
 s.\nIn future work\, Ellen is thinking about enjoying the freedom of less 
 structured styles of painting\, as in watercolor sketches and earthy free-
 form artwork.
