I’m pleased to invite you all to the opening of my show. It’s called “Girls In Sight”. If the images above look familiar it’s because the paintings that will be on exhibit are the very illustrations/portraits of the young women in my book “Portrait of a Girl and Her Art”. They are oil, mixed media, 30″x 40″ and incorporate a collage of the subject’s work in the back round of each painting.
If any of you live close enough to attend to opening, I’d be thrilled to meet you!

Congratulations Elena! I love your portraits above and elsewhere on your site. I didn’t know you were in NJ — I’m in NYC — that’s close. If I had a car I’d drive out there.
Only a couple of blocks from the train station;) Thanks very much Sandee!
Best wishes and congratulations, Elena. I’m sure your show will be a huge success.
Thank you Trapper. Much appreciated.
Way to go, girl! 🙂 What a wonderful exhibit and personal accomplishment, Elena! Very well done.

This is great news! I’m so happy that will be shown to the wide wide world, everyone will be stunned!
Not so sure I’ll stunn’um, but I’m really pleased that it’s happening. Thanks Amal:)
Gorgeous paintings, Elena. Take lots of pics of your show and share them with us please.
I will! Thank you Jill:)
Congratulations, Elena! (My aunt lived in Summit for many years…now in NYC. Never been there, but sounds like a very nice venue!)
It is a nice venue, I’m fortunate. Thanks Scilla.
Bravo! Many wishes to go well and make you happy! I wish I was there, but in a way I am!
You will be! Thank you!
congratulations! I would love to see it – just need to figure out how.
Thank you! Appreciate it.
Congratulations! Being on the other side of the planet might make it difficult to attend, but i’m so happy for you! Enjoy the wine and the adoration 🙂
You’ll be there in spirit John. Thanks:)
You know I will! (Some photos will be great)
BTW, have you ever painted a sprite?
Kinda depends on what your idea of a sprite may be. I’ve a couple of spritish creatures.
That’s the problem with sprites, isn’t it? Hard to actually pin down 🙂 Can you point me in the right direction?
Just emailed you a few candidates.
Gorgeous work and congratulations! I would totally go if I was close. I’m sure it will be a great success!
Thanks so much Cindy!
I’m sorry I won’t be there! What a marvelous event! Good work, Elena!
Thanks much!
I truly wish I could make it Elena!
Me too! Thanks for saying:)
