I begin by creating the origami figures, arranging them on a small stage, lighting them artistically, then photographing the miniature scene as a 3-D reference for my two-dimensional canvas. These paintings are all minimalist in style, with careful brushwork (I use no airbrush), done on a very fine-tooth canvas.

Rose Ellis says “English is not my first language, art is. I finally found my inner, playful voice while we were all locked up and alone.” Rose has made a whole new narrative using folded paper and found objects as a springboard. Her figures are imaginatively combined to create “stories.” Colorful, whimsical, realistic still lifes that are anything but still. Rose attended Kendall School of Art and Design but earned her studio art degree from the University of Michigan. She plays with her oil paints in her home studio in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Her cats, Mucha and Monet supervise closely. Rose’s Artistic Statement The first time I folded an origami dog in my studio, I realized the potential of the stories I could tell. While I would classify my paintings as still lifes, they are anything but still. Some authors know what their stories are going to be before they begin writing, I find that my stories fall into place as they unfold. My creations are meant to be full of whimsy and joy. They inspire my imagination and I hope they do for the viewer as well. https://www.roseellisfineart.com/contact-rose daily 0.75 2025-11-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6020c8947b0ff91513ed28da/25dec42e-8014-4331-8c70-bf098da6305b/D799CA8D-AE8C-41DC-9D9D-33EDCACCB3EB.png contact rose - Contact Email: ArtbyEllis@gmail.com https://www.roseellisfineart.com/commissions-for-the-workplace daily 0.75 2023-03-13 https://www.roseellisfineart.com/new-page daily 0.75 2021-04-10 https://www.roseellisfineart.com/see-rose-in-2025 daily 0.75 2025-11-16 https://www.roseellisfineart.com/faq daily 0.75 2022-01-22 https://www.roseellisfineart.com/commissions-for-the-home daily 0.75 2023-10-20 https://www.roseellisfineart.com/store daily 0.75 57682-11-28 https://www.roseellisfineart.com/store/p/dont-rain-on-my-parade-poster monthly 0.5 2025-11-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6020c8947b0ff91513ed28da/49ec691a-d17c-4e79-a9bb-f7b1bcca79f4/Parade+poster.jpg Store - "Don't Rain On My Parade!"
