We are delighted to welcome Sy Ellens back to West Michigan. Sy’s growing up on a farm developed his love of the land as depicted in his colorful aerial paintings.

“Having grown up on a farm, I have developed a special relationship with the land…And it is this special relationship
which God has given me that I am trying to explore and creatively express in my paintings.” – Sy Ellens
