Ellen Foust

Ellen Foust is a fine art photographer with a passion for teaching. Since 2018, she has been exploring the clouds at Newton’s Bullough’s Pond. Like Monet with his haystack paintings, Ellen returns over and over to the same scene in different seasons, weather, and times of day. Her amazing series, Cloudscapes of Bullough’s Pond, has been exhibited widely throughout Newton. More recently, Ellen has photographed close-ups of the flora and fauna of Bullough’s, as well as used digital editing software to imagine dreamscapes, delightful flights of fantasy riffed off of pond photographs. To date, all of Ellen’s Bullough’s Pond photos have been taken with her iPhone camera. Please visit the Newton Conservators’ “Artists Look at Nature in Newton” on our website for more of her work and for works of other Newton artists.
