5 out of 5 starsEllen Jewett is one of my most favorite artists. If I won the lottery, I would do my best to purchase one of her original masterpieces, but since I can’t afford that, these lovely prints will constantly remind me of nature’s beauty as seen through Ellen’s eyes. The reproductions are high quality, limited edition prints of her sculptural art pieces. They are stunning when framed and provide a visual reminder of the beauty in life. Thank you, Ellen, for sharing your talent with us. Love you forever and always!

5 out of 5 starsI bought the mantis and dragonfly as my two smaller prints and the bear and adult and child seahorses as my larger prints. These are all wonderful prints of high quality. The bear print was the first to catch my eye but in hand the two seahorses are my favorite of the four prints. I would be hard pressed to pick a favorite between the two smaller prints. Both are great. I still catch myself thinking of these as paintings when actually they are photographs of sculptures. Such amazing work.

The prints are individually signed, given a edition number and title, then wrapped in studio

and then it's time to go back to find inspiration. For myself this is outside on the hiking trail

The Natural History of my Surrealist Prints
My art is, first and foremost, a response to individual animals and experiences in the natural world. Having lifelong connections to creatures and places, observing their moods, movements, and natures, is the most visceral inspiration I can fathom. Reflections on the history and current practices of domestication; witnessing current ecological successes and crises; commensal and symbiotic relationships, especially between members of phylogenetically disparate categories of life – these are the pillars of my work. Is a fungal partner to an old growth tree as bacteria is to my gut? Are village dogs to humans as algae is to coral?
As a naturalist and lifelong student of anthrozoology, a strong focus for me is the contemplation of human cultural experience of nature and wildness. It is in this pillar I see a particular relationship with printed media. I have always been enthralled with how a given culture's gaze upon animals is manifest in two-dimensional media. This encompasses everything from paleolithic cave painting, 17th century ephemeral etchings, and even modern internet memes.
I have been receiving requests for printed paper editions of my sculptures for many years, but it has only been recently that I have started to explore their potential as a way to look deeper into my own work. In practical terms, the prints are intended to make my sculptures available in a more displayable and affordable form to a greater number of people. For the purpose of artistic growth, the prints support my ability to spend more time and 'go deeper' within each sculpture. Within the canon of my practice, the prints are intended to probe the connection to that two-dimensional space which often informs the initial creation of the piece. Through the production of many successive print series, using my own sculptures as a point of departure, I hope to explore the aesthetic of animals, nature and wildness as reflected in my own gaze.
