Ellen Rolli is a contemporary painter, interested in interpreting subject and emotion in an abstract and intuitive way.

"I am excited by the process, by daring paint application, by color, texture and the element of discovery."

Before moving to her new Studio/Gallery in Melrose, Ma., Ellen maintained a full time studio in Boston's SoWa arts district, for 13 years. A graduate of the Massachusetts College of Art, she was an artist member of the Copley Society of Art of Boston. She was awarded a month long painting residency at the Fine Arts Works Center of Provincetown Massachusetts. She has been the recipient of many awards and her paintings are held in numerous private and corporate collections in the U.S and abroad. She is featured in a 2010 book titled "100 artists of New England", and a 2015 book, "Inside the Artists Studio". Her work has been featured in multiple issues of Artscope Magazine.
