Ellen Haffar
My artwork has always been a
visual response to place. My
surroundings dictate both the
subject and appearance of the
work. When I was working out
of the Delevan Center, on the
near West Side of Syracuse,
New York, I found elements
such as worn bricks and
pigeons diving from rooftops
entered the paintings. Since
moving out to the hills of
Pompey NY., I have found my
subjects in the gardens and
landscapes that surround me.
Forays into the Adirondack
Mountains of New York state
and the Shores of Cape Cod in
Massachusetts have further
influenced the scope and
appearance of my work.
An interest in the
extraordinary found within
ordinary settings and subjects
has been a constant for me.
The changes in a creek or sky
that reflect the steady
advance of seasons as a
physical manifestation of
time… the movement of a black
dog through an opening in a
hedgerow. The way
unremarkable members of a
simple garden reveal truly
important aspects of life.
My paintings are the result
of sitting and looking,
quietly but intensely, at a
subject. When this is done,
surroundings reveal themselves
and humble elements take on
greater brilliance ...
