Welcome to the Ellen Rice Studio & Gallery
Ellen Rice has been painting professionally most of her life. A self-taught fine artist, she is considered one of Delaware's most collectible painters. Her work is collected worldwide.
Beginning this summer, The Ellen Rice Studio & Gallery is celebrating its 25th anniversary. As the celebration gets underway, this page will provide images and links to ongoing celebrations.
"Moonglow," the first painting in my 25-Year Celebration Series of small original oil paintings debuting July 4, 2024. You may watch the remaining 24 commemorative paintings unfold on the Celebration Series page.
You and your friends are warmly invited to stop in to see what's happening in person. You can also be kept up to date on an ongoing basis by signing up for Ellen's eNewsletter at the bottom of this page. We send news out about once a month or less and never share our collectors' email addresses.
Studio news is shared via the eNewsletter before it appears anywhere else. First up, a painting challenge and opportunity. Those on our email list will learn about it first.
Visiting the Studio & Gallery You're invited to visit whenever you're in the area. The new studio's location is on the edge of a wildlife refuge on a small peninsula about one mile west of the Delaware coast and 2 miles and three turns from Coastal Highway north of Bethany Beach, Delaware.
Click on the "Visit the Studio, Where & When" page for hours, directions and a link to a live Google map that will guide you here.
To arrange a private consultation about a portrait or other commissioned work, or to come on days that are not scheduled to be open, please call the studio at (302) 539-3405 in advance. Ellen is up to her elbows in paint most days but will do her best to accommodate you. Please understand if it's not possible.
