Institue Saint Luc, Tournai, Belgique

Bruges Art Route, Anne Duhem

“In the same district, St. Annarei, we stop along a canal and ring at the door of Ellen Trezevant, who receives us in her workshop-salon, filled with light and overlooking the water. The American offers watercolors (landscapes and seascapes) but especially the views of canals and houses of Bruges realized first in pencil and then in silverpoint over which she then superimposes multiple layers of egg tempera ( she mixes her own pigments) and finally in oil. If Ellen is not satisfied with a narrow perspective, she does not hesitate to recommence, redraw, or expand her work. Her elegant apartment, her paintings, her personality were not without an evoking a sense of the works of Fernand Knopf and of course <Bruges-la-morte>.”

The poetry of light...
summer 2003 watercolors of the Belgian landscape.

The beauty of form...
Detailed and sensitive drawings from Greek sculpture.  The importance of good composition.

The craft of technique...
fresco, fresco secco, egg tempera, oil, mixed technique, and encaustic.
