Welcome
to Green Boots Studio...Art of Ellen A. Gavin
Ellen is a fine artist working primarily in oils. Painting either
on location “Plein Air” …or in her studio in Millville, New Jersey. She produces only originals. Each unique
painting beginning with a personal vision. Ellen’s style is painterly…realism with emotional brushwork. Either
nature’s moods, or human interest, inspiration is everywhere, waiting to be captured.
Area of Specialty__________________________________________
Though always working in oils, her subject interests are broad. Gavin is becoming nationally recognized as an equestrian
painter. Her paintings often include figures, and she enjoys the observation of peoples’ idiosyncrasies.On location,
she paints Plein Air landscapes and cityscapes, whenever possible. Finally, her “Small Idea” paintings have allowed
success in the realm of miniatures, although still executed in somewhat loose painterly style.
Price
Range______________________________________________
Small original oils start around $100…Commissions
begin at $600 paintings range $300 to $4,500. Call or email for more details.
