American artist Mary Ellen Rosenbluth (1931-88) has left a legacy of remarkable creativity, encompassing an array of media, including oils, watercolors, charcoal, sculpture - and spans the world of mid-20th Century American art.
Surrounded by art from an early age -- her mother and physician father were both talented artists -- she would go on to carve her own path under the tutelage of Aaron Kurzen and Rufino Tamayo at The Dalton School and then by Julian Levi, Leo Manso, and other instructors at The Art Students League in New York.
Mary Ellen was also strongly influenced by the dynamic artistic scene in Provincetown, MA, where she painted over many summers.
Mary Ellen's talents were recognized with a medal from the Audubon Artists as well as on Madison Avenue in exhibits at the New York City Center Gallery, Knickerbocker Gallery, as well as The Isselbacher Gallery, which sold several of her sculptures.
