New Painting.....

Here is another painting in my 'Road' series. It is Congress Street in Portland, Maine. (Intersection of Bramhall Street and Congress Street, heading out of town)

It is 17" x 22" and is in tempera paint.

Lili said...: My Gawd, I LOVE how you did the lights, all of them. Headlights, traffic lights, street lights. At first I thought I saw movement in the traffic, but then I realized it was your falling snow graphic! ~Lili; January 10, 2011 at 9:44 PM

Kathleen said...: OMG How many times have I been on this street, right there, when I worked at Mercy Hospital. I love the headlights and traffic light, and don't know how you did that? Beautiful painting, I love it.

And Hey what is this??????? Are you like getting a huge snow dump tomorrow????????? Stay safe and warm.

Sarah Laurence said...: No wonder I recognized the view - only you made it even nicer. Today you could just leave the canvas blank to capture all the snow.; January 12, 2011 at 4:54 PM

As always, your talent is so immense and as always, it makes me incredibly homesick. What I wouldn't give for one of your paintings...especially of one of my beloved lighthouses.

Beautiful beautiful work Elenka.; January 13, 2011 at 3:52 PM
