* “Blood And Vapor”.: Who lingers within you? Have you ever felt an ancestral presence? The inescapable tie of family:hundreds of individuals, yesterday and today, here and gone. A powerful resonance or inconspicuous vapor?

I love coming back to see your work Elena. Sorry i am not well so don’t spend much time around. It is beautiful and I love your style and concept, great ideas xx
Sorry to hear that you are not well. Not to worry at all about visiting here. I will always find my way to your blog and enjoy your celebration of color and your skillful expression. I thank you very much for your very kind words. Take care.
Thanks Elena… I appreciate 🙂
Some artists I work with… know exactly from which side of the family… the inspiration comes from. Other artists… it is still a mystery.
The way this lends itself to interpretation is amazing,very impressive in different reasons,the feeling,the mood…atmosphere is perfect!!! 🙂
Thank you very much!:)
Like the Black Paintings of Goya, this marvellous series raises many questions whose answers are very difficult, if not impossible, to answer.
We are, each day, a little closer to the line separating life from death. Will there be someone waiting to help us to cross that border?
Yes. All that you have written are considerations in this painting. Goya is and has been a great influence. Thank you Marcelo.
This is a very mpressive piece of work, beautiful – and so well done!
Love, Dina
Thanks so much Dina!
Wow! Gorgeous. A little scary and a lot fanciful. Amazing! I love that dark figure of the girl with her big feet and those billowing fabrics. Too cool 😀
Thanks Cindy!
this gives me a supernatural feeling which is disturbing but also very attractive! Very well done!
Thank you Daisy!
Blood and vapour for sure, that’s just incredible!
Beautiful and unsettling – perfect.

You did a wonderful thing, dear Elena. I really like the color combination. Thank you so much for sharing.
Have a wonderful day, dear Elena. 🙂
Thanks Stefania:)
Strong sense of movement and interplay.
Thank you Louis.
Cold wax, need to check it out, have only done encaustic hot wax. Does cold wax harden, off to google for me.
It does harden, but adds weight. Easier to use than encaustic, at least in my opinion.
Thanks…I will check it out further.
M m m m, —– this one seems somewhat suspicious.
Care to expand Yoshi?
To read vague or double image kind is in fact read own mind —- to see looks like hidden
image (many in here) = was that hidden by you or my paranoia ?
—– So, I suspect you, I suspect me. = (I know something going on here) —– is it ?
I think this is the best yet, Elena…and that’s saying something. Simply stunning 🙂
I’m so pleased Darren, thank you:)
beutiful work..
Thank you Leyla.
Wow this is awesome – the more I look, the more I see (like I just noticed the boney hand!).
Thanks so much Mary!
Amazing piece of work Elena! Stunning!
Much appreciated Adrian!
Oh wow! I could stare at that for hours… or decades, if it were on my wall 😉
Thanks so very much John!
