Jaime Ellsworth

Dog on the Hill, Original Painting

2022

Artist Comments
Artist Jaime Ellsworth expresses a white dog with a green collar. "As night falls, the dog on the hill sleeps peacefully under the stars and moon," narrates Jaime. She etches poetry around the dog, telling a story of the moon and stars kissing its nose as darkness falls. Her painting style evokes a cozy and inviting feel, much like the pup lying snugly in quiet slumber.

About the Artist
Jaime Ellsworth paints animals. Her career as a cowhand never got off the ground, so she stumbled into art never knowing it would complement her passion for animals so completely. Most subjects are her own, but lately she has expanded out of her corral to include bears and beasts not commonly seen on San Juan Island, in the Pacific Northwest, where she's lived for the last 30 years. She suspects it will be years before she runs out of inspiration or has jeans that aren’t covered with paw prints or paint.
