In the Co-op Cafe: WaterColor Prints
by Ellen Fisch
Through July/August 2023
Ellen Fisch is a Bethlehem, NH, and NYC-based artist. Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, Ellen and her family craved nature and spent much leisure time in parks and gardens in and around her urban home. In 1975, Ellen's parents became permanent residents of Bethlehem, New Hampshire, where Ellen and
her family could appreciate nature at its most beautiful during summers and periodically throughout the year. Having studied art, photography and architecture throughout her education, Ellen believes that nature is the greatest teacher and that she can learn much from studying all that the White Mountains and the other places she has visited can provide.
"My main purpose in painting and photographing the wonderful scenery of the North Country is to express my love of nature to others who may view my art.
Although I have been creating art in New Hampshire for many years, there is always something new to see and to reinterpret with my brush and paints or camera. I would hope that my work may take people to places where they can share with me the great beauty of the wonders that nature has created."
Ellen's framed prints will be on display in our Co-op Cafe through August and are available for purchase directly through the co-op. When you purchase art from our Cafe Gallery, 95% of the proceeds go back to the artist directly, which goes a long way to support creative arts in our community!

Art, Music, Wine and Cheese: A Wonderful Treat
During my July/August 2023 WaterColor print exhibit at the Littleton Coop Café, I was proud and pleased to provide a backdrop for the renown North Country Chamber Players as they played classical French chamber music during a wonderful French wine and French cheese tasting! My images of the White Mountain scenery lent colorful local atmosphere to the occasion as a counterpoint to the wonderful French arts of wine, cheese and melody!

STILL LIFES
The still-lifes series presented here exemplifies Fisch’s intimate approach to her surroundings. In 2020, forced to stay home due to the pandemic, Fisch engaged in a cleanout in her house, discovering small objects accumulated over many years, such as bowls, jars, and silver trays. Interested in their shapes and textures, she contemplated how she could use them to express herself. In her studio near the window, she saw how soft northern light enhanced each object, and she began to pursue the art of still life.

new york architecture photos: ellen fisch does the bronx
Gould Memorial Library, Bronx Community College, New York
Photographer Ellen Fisch’s new show at New Century Artists in Chelsea showcases the artist’s New York architecture photos of the Bronx. Having grown up in Brooklyn in the late 1940s, Fisch’s love of architecture led her to a career as a draftsman, but she has always been drawn to the camera and how photography captures a fleeting moment in time.

How can something be incongruous yet concurrently be a perfect fit?
Architecturally speaking, I am not referring to glaringly obvious misfits that horrify even in their attempt to justify the unjustifiable; rather to seeming incongruity that fades away after a closer look. I find myself pondering on these lines whenever I contemplate I.M. Pei’s clear glass pyramids as the entrance/extension to the Louvre.
Make an impression with sepia photography
Explore the history of sepia images and learn how to recreate the same warm, dreamy effect with your own digital photos.
Go monochrome with sepia. From old historic photos in an antique shop to art prints in a museum, sepia photography is instantly recognizable. “Sepia photography is similar to black-and-white photography in that it’s monochromatic, meaning one tone or one color. But it’s more brown or tan,” says photographer Ellen Fisch.
Still Life Photography Virtual Exhibit
Hewlett-Woodmere Public Library: July 2021
From the Hewlett-Woodmere PL Overleaf:
“Ellen Fisch will exhibit a number of Still Life Photographs through the Hewlett-Woodmere Art Gallery’s Virtual Exhibition throughout July, 2021. The exhibit will showcase Ellen’s mastery of photography and her love of the intimacy of the Still Life genre.”
Ellen Fisch’s Artists Statement: “ Art has always been my compass and my passion. Art is also my means of communication: an expression of that which I see/feel and how I interpret these sensations. In college I studied photography and architectural drawing which became the basis of my career as an architectural photographer. However, I also expressed my aesthetics through painting, drawing and design work. Furthermore, I have continued to study all forms of art throughout my life for lessons I can learn that improve my own work and for the immeasurable pleasure of poring over the artworks of others. One area of interest has always been the intimate art of still life: the artist’s selection of personal and/or appealing objects and bringing these to life in combination. During COVID-19 I was unable to pursue my architectural photography and fortunately turned to still life. Each still life I set up, photographed and worked on brought much happiness and artistic absorption during that difficult time. I also learned a great deal about form, line, composition and design form photographing still life. And of course the light, the most important element of any artwork provided life to my photographs. I hope that viewers who see my still life photographs receive as much enjoyment from the images as I took in creating them.”
The Art of Architectural Photography: Exhibiting With Other Photographers
Thursday, January 23, 2020
Recently I was pleased and honored to participate in a group photography exhibition at Jadite Galleries in NYC. In all, there were six of us showing photography as our form of self-expression: each photographer exhibiting different subjects. It is stimulating and informative to be part of such a group. I exchanged ideas about the art, craft and technical side of photography with my peers, while enjoying the social aspects of the event as well.

Atget’s Paris Inspires Photographer Ellen Fisch’s Images of NYC
Friday, December 24, 2021
In the past number of years, architectural fine art Photographer Ellen Fisch has taken thousands of photographs of architecture in NYC. Fisch was often inspired by the work of Jean-Eugène-Auguste Atget, the Paris Photographer who lived and worked in the City of Lights 100 years ago. Atget’s street scenes of Paris are timeless and artistic in his use of the photographic elements that Ellen Fisch has infused into her own sepia photography.
