The Ellen Rice Studio, Gallery & Learning Center bricks and mortar location will begin to reopen with open air displays on our studio grounds on Saturday, June 6th.

We have moved all of my prints to the large, finished garage on the north side of the studio, as well as the many handmade items of the other artisans I represent. No originals are on display there, but appointments can be made to see them inside of the studio on a very limited basis following strict government health guidelines.

For those understandably not comfortable being near anyone, we will also offer contactless curbside pickup indefinitely. Shipping is always available. Should you wish to see specific prints in person without going indoors, we will be happy to make socially distanced arrangements that will be comfortable for you - and us!

A percentage of all profits from the sales of my prints will be donated to a local hospital relief effort to provide frontline workers with protective gear that is still needed. More information will be forthcoming as we work out the details.

​In the meantime, please stay safe and be well. ~ Ellen

A little about the artist who started this gallery 21 years ago "on a wing and a prayer."

Delaware painter Ellen Rice is acknowledged widely as one of the Mid-Atlantic Coast's most collected artists.

Working from her home on the edge of an ecological preserve a mile from the Atlantic Ocean and her new public studio, gallery & learning center nearby, her paintings and prints reflect a great love of the natural beauty around her, her appreciation of the good that exists everywhere, and her constant quest to understand and share the meaning of this journey we call life.

From her nationally bestselling Treasure Beaches of the Mid-Atlantic map and luminescent seascapes and landscapes to her touching human and animal portraiture and inspirational Strength of Woman series, her work is found in private, corporate, educational and government collections in 14 countries on 4 continents.

These pages provide a way to begin exploration and collecting. The paintings and their reproductions are always better seen in person. You are invited to visit her studio on the Cedar Neck Peninsula of Ocean View, Delaware, to meet the artist and further your exploration of her work. Also feel free to message her through her Contact page. The studio is open all year. See hours at the bottom of this page.
