| "Elaine Elinsky: Face #58", oil, 12"h x 12"w, copyright Jill Banks 2011 |
Elaine told me to go home, rest and "do not dare" touch this afterwards and I obeyed. Thank you, Elaine! I needed a "talking to."
Elaine's paintings are beautiful and ethereal. She's been my studiomate for lots of years now and we work catty-corner from each other at the Artists' Atelier in Great Falls. I love painting away knowing she's in her corner doing the same.
It was fun, today, too learning more about Elaine and her family and her story. I look forward to looking up her brother and his stained glass business in London this April. She couldn't be prouder of him ... and I can't wait to witness why for myself.
We had lots of fun. (Despite being pooped.)
I'm coming to the deadline for posting so that's about it for now. I did paint a little painting from still life class today that I'll try to get up here tonight ... so check back.

I love this face, perhaps because her coloring is the same as mine was before I let my hair grow out gray. You continue to amaze me on your journey of 100 faces. Can't wait for my turn.
