David Greenlee......

It is with heavy heart and profound sadness that I announce that Ellen Chisdes Neuberg, owner of Studio/Gallerie Chiz, passed away on October 1, 2024. As her husband, I always marveled at her indomitable spirit. She had such a love of life. She loved art and really got into her own painting after she closed the gallery. She had the gallery for 22 years and I have heard from her artists that her gallery was the best. Ellen was her happiest when preparing for the gallery shows and at the openings. She would play with the musicians and make enough food for an army. She always said that people needed to be fed if they were coming to a 6pm opening. I, personally, will miss her so much. I loved her dearly and we were together for 30 years, married for 15 years. I am younger than she was and she always laughed about being a cougar. Rest in peace my dear, sweet and funny Ellen. The world is a little less without you in it.

Thanks to all who attended the visitation and funeral and have sent me sincere words of love and sympathy. I do appreciate it. Ellen was such a big personality. Life is a bit dimmer without her.

I will maintain the gallery and the website for the forseeable future. The one change I will make is to take the sold pieces off the web site in the near future so that possible customers will not have to swipe through all the sold pieces.

My times at the gallery will be intermittent so please call if you want to see the art. Please note the new phone number below.
