The inspiration behind “Hanging Out Together,” a 24x36 mixed media piece. Watching different birds all perched together on one branch gave me the idea—for more works visit ellacartart.com#southernartist #exploresaintsimonsisland #studioartist #coastalgeorgia

My grandmother’s backyard hibiscus are some of my favorite childhood memories. I started this painting last spring and set it aside until I knew what I wanted to say—not just a flower portrait, but the joy these old-time favorites still bring me on summer walks. #studioartist#oilpainting

“Apples in Abstract” | 18x24 | Oil on canvas
Blending realism with abstraction, My goal is to give the viewer a sense of movement and energy. The frame really shows it off. 
This piece is available on my website: ellacartart.com
Would love comments !

Showing the framed version of a painting. I don’t usually do that, and I typically use a simple floater frame—but these two pieces called for something more traditional.
"Turbulence Sunset" (18x24) and "Pronk Still Life" (10x8).
These paintings are available via my website ellacartart.com

Pronk Still Life | 8x10 mixed media
A small, contemporary interpretation of the traditional Dutch still life—playful and layered. I added collage elements to bring in texture and surprise. “Pronk” means a showy little still life, and this one carries that charm in my own voice. ellacartart.com

Flowers in a Terracotta Vase | 20x24
Inspired by a painting from Jan van Huysum, this piece is my own interpretation of the lush Dutch floral tradition. I couldn’t resist adding a finch—one of my favorite little birds—to complete the composition. A blend of classic inspiration and personal touch.

"Optimism and Luck in Vase" my contemporary interpretation of the Dutch Florals. Sunflowers have long symbolized optimism and luck. In a nod to the Dutch tradition, I’ve tucked insects throughout the piece. A joyful experiment in blending past and present.

"Golden Embrace of Wisdom" weaves vivid autumn hues with deep spiritual symbolism. The owl, a timeless symbol of wisdom and intuition. A radiant gold circle enhances the piece’s spiritual undertones, representing unity, continuity, and the eternal cycles of life.
