Artist Bio: Ellen Sinel
Ellen Sinel draws inspiration from the tranquil Virginia countryside and the striking landscapes of Cape Cod, exploring the dynamic essence of nature through her paintings. Since 2006, her Spartina series has centered on the resilient grasses that flourish along water’s edges. These plants embody the cycles of life, enduring harsh winds and basking in sunlight, only to wither and regenerate with the changing seasons.

Her latest series, featuring tree paintings titled “Trees from a Moving Train,” captures the fleeting essence of tree-lined landscapes. The blurred forms in these works reflect the movement and transformation inherent in the natural world. Sinel’s art has fostered a deep awareness of the fragility of the environment, especially in the context of climate change.
A poignant example of this instability is Mill Pond in Truro, Massachusetts. Once part of the freshwater Pamet River, the pond was transformed during a fierce storm when saltwater from the Atlantic breached the river. This event drastically altered the local ecosystem. In March 2013, the ocean rose again, flooding the Pamet and surrounding areas, further reshaping the landscape. Mill Pond may appear more desolate now, but it continues to embody the beauty and resilience of nature as it adapts to new realities.
