A foray into more personally (and slightly humorous at times) narrative paintings, the full title of this gallery is "I Could Have Been A Dancer But My Mother Wouldn't Let Me Take Dance Lessons". True story. I was already taking piano lessons and they couldn't afford both. I would have gladly traded the piano lessons for dance lessons. Thanks Mom.

A series of non-representational paintings made with oil paint, cold wax medium and various mixed media such as stone dust, sand from the beaches of Rhode Island, dry pigments and charcoal . Each piece in this series contain many layers of oil paint and cold wax medium which creates areas of subtle color and texture shifts along with an overall sense of depth.
Started with no preconceived ideas in mind allowed me the freedom of indulging my desire to experiment not to mention my need to make a huge mess in the process.

Biography
Painter Eleanor O’Keefe Anderson explores an eclectic mix of ideas in her work from seascapes and landscapes to abstracts and recently more narrative and humorous subjects, all constructed with multiple layers of oil paint and frequently cold wax, sand, and stone dust; applying the different materials with something other than delicate brushstrokes – a process that involves scraping, rubbing, sanding, and gouging her canvasses and wood panels. The more layers that build up on her paintings, the more paint and grit are strewn about her studio and clothing, and the more she sweats - reflecting the intensely physical nature of her practice and, ultimately, the immersive quality and sheer physicality of the work itself.
