Artist 

Ellen Kalmenson born and raised in Los Angeles California defines her all encompassing life philosophy as ‘The Art Of Wellness’. It’s something she lives and practices every day as an Artist, Healing Masseuse and Yoga Teacher. Ellen’s paintings emerge from the space where all of her artistries overlay and intersect, creating healing art from healing hands.Her aligning touch in her yoga class is the same gentle caress that brings light to her painting.It’s this calm that sets the tone for her work.  
Kalmenson’s artistic focus arises from the pace of nature and  human emotion. Her paintings reflect stillness as a form of action, and seek to create moments to pause and reflect. Each painting begins a journey, white on white, with layers of texture as a form of stillness...adding color and shadow to guide the painting to life.
