>>> Born in London, England, within sound of Bow Bells, Ellis has sketched all his life, and painted since 1990.

His own style is colorful, using strong design, and he is particularly fond of local scenes, landscape and marine.

Having lived in Vancouver since 1970, many of his watercolors reflect the BC outdoors, and his works shows the importance he feels towards the richness, clarity and moods in the beautiful British Columbia.



I believe this must make him Ellyce A M Brayham 1927, there is no other birth to account for that info


and I'm right, lol .....

Chrissiex - You're right - with hindsight I should have mentioned that but I didn't want to confuse matters as I believed they spelt their names without a Y. Seeing the phonebook, clearly not. And, I now realise, irrelevant.

I feel a trip to Canada coming on - perhaps when it's a bit warmer!

Colin if you read the thread

the blog in question (to which I linked earlier) belongs to art gallery owner Angela

who is evidently the daughter of Ellis / Ellyce
