Maggie Ellis is an artist who immerses herself in the river landscape, drawn to the hidden textures and shapes that exist within and around it. She observes deeply, listens, and connects with her surroundings, translating these experiences into visual responses through various mark-making techniques and materials. Recently, her work has expanded to include movement, exploring the relationship between the body, mind, and environment. These creative expressions unfold both in the natural landscape and within the studio.
As an arts educator, emerging art therapist, and artist, Maggie is passionate about working with people of all ages and diverse backgrounds, supporting their ability to develop and share their stories and creativity. Her practice is deeply influenced by interpersonal engagement, and she seeks to explore and capture the ways in which people experience and relate to the environment.
