Ellen exchanged her corporate heels for paintbrushes and had since embarked on a journey from Singapore to Thailand as a self-taught artist. When she is not painting, Ellen enjoys going on solitary walks in woodlands and along beaches where Nature's treasure trove impels her to document her findings and impressions using the language of poetry. Her works have recently been published in The Ekphrastic Review and Nature Writing. Others are forthcoming in The Pangolin Review and The Tiger Moth Review.
