Eleanor's Paintings
I have been preoccupied with painting
for the last ten years; I like to
play with colour, contemplate different compositions and share my
experiences with other artists. Painting has led me to observe, record
and better understand my life.
When possible I sketch and paint scenes, moments, people, and objects
that I feel need to be remembered and interpreted.
Since my retirement in 2000 I have enjoyed both the peace and the
beauty of the water and boats of the West Coast. When sailing I always
pack a water colour kit with me and the small paintings remind me
of where I have been.
The picture on the right, "Painting at Pebble Beach" is by Bob Harmer.
