Ring 		New to the world of painting following retirement from finance and accounting, Elaine is currently a watercolor student at the Betsy Jacaruso Studio at the Chocolate Factory in Red Hook, NY, as well as a drawing student of Keith Gunderson. Her only other experience in drawing and painting was from two mini workshops conducted by Michael Newberry, Santa Monica, CA.

Elaine has since attended workshops with several nationally known watercolor artists including Gerald Brommier, Eric Wiegardt, Diane Maxey, Mary Whyte, and Linda Doll.
