Born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, Ellen Dieter’s interest in art began at an early age. After graduating high school, she began traveling in between studies at the Cleveland Institute of Art and the Cooper School of Art. llen settled in Paris, France for over a decade and studied part time at L’Ecole des Art Appliqué.
Over the years, Ellen has worked as a seamstress/designer in a leather shop, a fashion model in the US and abroad, she has taught art for ages k-9, portfolio class for seniors and workshops for adults. Working as a scenic artist for the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego, Ellen found her love for painting large.
In 2007 Ellen left the traditional work force, and started devoting all her time to her painting practice.
Ellen’s work is bright and colorful, her abstracted figures and landscapes have a whimsical and raw quality. Never one to shy away from a bright palette, Ellen’s work reflects the sun drenched world seen in her two home locations: San Diego and Hawaii.
There's a lot of talk of Cleveland.... (you've been warned)!
