A Jamais Mixed Media on Paper
About the artist... Elaine Weiner-Reed has been painting for over 27 years--the last 18 of which have been primarily focused on watermedia. Her works have been accepted into juried international exhibits and national juried shows (more than 18 states) - where she has won awards and recognition. Her artworks are in private collections in the US and France, and have been exhibited internationally (France, India, Beijing). She is an enthusiastic artist, judge, and teacher. She minored in sculpture while at the university, and for over 40 years has pursued her art: from sketching to sculpture (clay, wood, resin (molds), metal assemblages) to classical oil painting to life drawing to painting. Her recent works cycle back to her sculptural roots in that they are more textural or tactile.  Her body of work is a progressive and on-going self-portrait...sometimes intense, experiential, fanciful, complex, intriguing..., but always thoughtful and personal. That, whether abstract, expressionistic, or non-objective. In recent years, she has worked on several series exploring thoughts, feelings, and dreams…with a special focus on the subconscious and the unconscious. Suffering from insomnia, she tries to leverage those long nights and capture the many thoughts, images, words, and feelings that mesh into one…visions sometimes swirling just out of her reach.  A sketchbook documents captured dream thoughts or fragments of the stream of disjointed musings that populate her semi-consciousness and they later integrate into her writings or paintings. To try and convey some of this complex weaving or layering of thoughts and images, Weiner-Reed's latest paintings frequently incorporate texture, found objects, or words. Each work has an underlying idea or story, and the intent is well-defined. Much thought takes place before and during the creative process.  Weiner-Reed is committed to be thoughtful in every creation…for herself and for her audience.
