Slow and steady does indeed win the race, if you are talking about Elaine Gaines and her small-scale masterpieces.
Elaine works diligently on each painting, taking her time, applying paint brushstroke by brushstroke, and layer upon layer.
The end results are breathtaking color fields that each viewer brings a unique interpretation to. For some they may represent emotions, for others they are vivid sunsets.
Others see images and shapes within the swirls of different colors.
Elaine has sold numerous paintings, has had work collected by folk art enthusiasts, and has been juried into many exhibitions.
She has also participated in countless collaborative works with other figurative artists at Open Door.
From her years of hard work and her sweet disposition at the studio, Elaine is an inspiration to her fellow artists and collectors alike.
