Ellen A Cook

Painting & Sculpture




 

I have many fascinations. With art, with art history, with the history of other spheres;

nature and folklore and the workings of the mind and heart of mankind.

Art offers one sphere in which to explore them;

in landscape and portraiture, the revisiting of famous and less famous works,

and the depiction of many other things out of the past and present.

Another method is writing poetry. Poetry, that is, as a form of storytelling,

full of kings and queens, shepherds and sailors, hobgoblins and fairies.

And the occasional murder.

You can see me read my poems on my poetry page, or on Youtube here:

(I even do the accents. It's a marvelous time.)

Come away with me, and I shall make of my poems vessels to take

you into places near and far, and in strange and wondrous company.
