Gleaming Waterfall Painting

"I always attempt (on my work) to create an expression of my inner passions and feelings. Through bold colors, layers, strokes and scrapes I aim to bring together on a canvas a free image that will communicate to the viewer real emotions.” Elaine spent her childhood in the suburbs of Sao Paulo, Brazil and now resides in New York, after living in California for many years. As a self-taught artist, Elaine's paintings reflect her transition and experiences between both countries. Elaine often works in an experimental way with different techniques. She enjoys adding texture and seeing the playful nuances of colors on her creations.
