In 2005 after six years as Peter Howson's assistant, this accomplished artist relocated to the village of Sorn, Ayrshire in order to combine both family and work commitments in a rural environment. Elaine has continued to concentrate in oil paintings for both the private and public sector as well as galleries throughout the United Kingdom and abroad.
Her work embraces the strong rural animal paintings from which she has become renowned.
