Elaine Hertel
Reinventing the Familiar


Come enjoy the wonderful work of Elaine Hertel. Elaine learned early on not to let the glare of museum lights obscure difference between trend and fad. Instead, she found a new version re-inventing the familiar subjects with a new vocabulary of dense colors. Her palette of reds, oranges and blacks lends the painting elegance, while the forms of rooster combs carried by the flamboyant figures give her paintings a sophisticated rhythm.
