Someone asked why I paint so many birds—well, when you wake up to this with your morning coffee, how could you not? Drop by ArtTrends Gallery to see more of my birds or visit ellacartart.com.#studioartist#coastalgeorgia#woodstorks
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
I agree. I wish the occupants of DC would all start wearing stars on the shirts. Not just yellow but other colors the Nazis used to distinguish between prisoners. Silent protest
Ella Cart’s Windswept series, inspired by a stormy coastal day, will be part of the new hanging at ArtTrends Gallery starting Aug 26. open.substack.com/pub/ellacart...
“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. #MixedMediaArt#ArtWithMeaning
