Ellen Hill was born in 1960 and grew up in Rocky Hill, New Jersey and Athens, Georgia. She spent much of her childhood exploring the surrounding forests and fields of north Georgia. Her elegant abstractions in wood and paint reflect her strong respect for nature.

Her works have been included in exhibitions in the Washington-Baltimore area at the Corcoran Gallery of Art (1997); University of Maryland, College Park (2001); Maryland Institute College of Art (2006); the Washington, DC City Hall Art Collection (2006); and the University of Maryland, University College (2013, 2014).

A solo exhibition, "Natural Forces: Wood Paintings by Ellen Hill" was mounted by the Julio Fine Arts Gallery, Loyola University Maryland in Baltimore in September/October 2018.

Her works are in public collections including the National Museum of Women in the Arts, Washington, DC; the Academy Art Museum, Easton, MD; the U.S. State Department; the D.C. Commission for the Arts and Humanities; Zimmerli Art Museum, Rutgers University; and the University of Maryland University College, Adelphi, MD.
