Expressive Visual Artist, Lecturer & Educator

Inspired by the mystical elements of life, Ellen Reinkraut creates art that reflects her affirming views on life and the universe, transforming personal experiences into universal metaphors and symbols.

Her unique pieces are layered with meaning, metaphors, and symbols—often combining images, words, and found objects with color and texture to build a complete, harmonious composition.

Her paintings are journeys into passionate, mysterious, and emotional places.

The images are expressive, deeply personal, and suggestive. They are open to multiple interpretations and invoke awareness, affirmation, and joy.
