ALL of this joins together with HER deep dedication of torah and an observant jewish lifestyle. The story of HOW ellen began creating micro calligraphy is almost AS inspiring AS the works of ART themselves. Before ellen began creating these amazing works. SHE was already a world class artist creating soft sculptures of whimsical CHASSIDIC figures AS well AS familiar political and biblical characters. This was Another form of ART that showed the painstaking dedication SHE has to HER craft. While these figures were quite popular both in israel and around the world. AS ellen puts it. “HASHEM HAD NEW plans for ME. ONE DAY I woke and the need to DO this (micro calligraphy) descended and enveloped ME. However. I AM a person WHO needs time to think things over and I Wasn’t ready to DO something like this AT that point in MY already busy life. I decided NOT to SAY anything to anyone. Because I knew if I DID. MY husband would BE taking ME to GO GET MY supplies that minute!” TWO weeks later. Ellen’s husband GOT a call from ONE of HIS friends in California. They wanted to start marketing micrography in their area and asked for ELIEZER'S help finding suppliers. Once ellen heard this. SHE understood the gift SHE was being given. SHE told HER husband about doing micro calligraphy herself. . . And the rest AS they SAY. Is history. Even with HER extensive ART background. Ellen really just took it ONE step AT a time. Each time SHE developed a piece SHE learned something NEW. Starting with the fact that SHE is the only ONE in the world to USE a calligraphy PEN and water color paint to create HER pieces. Some pieces taking AS much AS 11 months to create. Ellen knows that G D was guiding HER on this NEW journey. The first piece SHE created was shir HA SHIRIM the idea was just there.
