As an Aligned Exhibit Portfolio Artist, Ellen is available to collaborate with local Washtenaw businesses, offering a rotation of artwork for exhibit at no cost to the business.

Ellen has many artworks available to exhibit now!

The process starts with an email, or go ahead and book a quick meeting with Tia Sunshine at your business.

Tia Sunshine, founder and head collaborator at Aligned Exhibits, matches you with a Portfolio Artist like Ellen Sherman. You get:

  • No-cost consultation at your business to share more about your business.

  • Curated private viewing room online featuring suggested art/artists for you to consider.

  • Support in the creation of flexible collaborations and the relationship between the business and the artist.

My work is about material, experimentation and process; the colors and forms are informed by my environment. Through multi-year layered paintings, cut up sketches and old work reassembled, or paintings that stop before they might be considered ‘finished’ I am interested in exploring the nature of making art and examining the idea of finality.

What is truly finished? When does the experiment stop and art begin?

My process is impulse and intuition; reacting to what is happening on the surface of the canvas in that moment; pools of paint moved by gravity, water soaking through a page, combined with an editing process that might be years out, or immediate and delivered by swift scissors, the moment repurposed into something else.

I am seeking out exploration, test and trial, for the discovery of tiny worlds in overlapping pigments and the freedom/excitement/terror of knowing it might be cut apart tomorrow. Everything is both impermanent and permanent and my work is attempting to live in the in-between.

Aligned Exhibits was founded to help dispel the idea that we are ‘starving artists’ and need a handout. Artists are skilled professionals adding personality to your business environment and value to our community.

I encourage you to find and follow Ellen at the links below and on the Aligned Exhibits Facebook and Instagram accounts.
