Background
Author: elainedesterre
I have been producing oil paintings, mixed media, prints (etching), digital prints and drawings for many years travelling to the Australian outback and overseas for inspiration and further education. My formal education consists of a PhD in painting and a BA in printmaking and my artwork is represented in public and private collections. My purpose and ongoing challenge is to create a gender-balanced and environment-focused iconography within the Western canon of European oil painting. These themes find expression within imagery about time, memory and identity as well as in geomorphology of evolutionary and environmental significance.

All the luminous light and smudgy fringes one would find in an early morning awakening of the landscape. A gorgeous piece, Elaine.

Thank you Karen. I’m fascinated by the way you achieve similar mark making within photography.
