Blessed is said to be one of Elton John's favorite

Blessed is said to be one of Elton John's favorite songs. I believe some people are born with talents that far exceed the norm. At an early age Elton (or Reginald; the name he was born with) began his relationship with music and the piano. You can feel his passion and connection to his performances. He has had many trials and tribulations; not all glory as one might think. He is an alcoholic, addicted to drugs, had cancer and has had surgery on his larynx. Any one of these could have ended his life and/or career. But at 72 he is still thriving. One cannot know Elton without also paying tribute to his career partner, Bernie Taupin, as well. They have both been blessed with awesome talents and I feel blessed to have witnessed their careers.#artbymilessa #oilpainting #artexponyc2020 #eltonjohn #artist

The Heir of Mystery #oilpainting by #artbymilessa.

The Heir of Mystery #oilpainting by #artbymilessa. Intensity is what this painting is about. The red butterflies are a symbol of intense romance and passion. Damascus hides his identity to all but her. However, you can see her lovely greyhound is jealous of his affections towards her. The mystery will glow and not become a heap of ruins.

The Investigator...one of my Dream-Maker series. In part, a true story. Her name is Dallas. In Capturing the Imagination...I am using vintage photos of children from the late 1800’s to early 1900’s. They are called cabinet cards, which are either sepia toned or b&w. I re-create them in color with a story to bring them back to life. #artexponyc #artbymilessa #oilpainting #dreamscape

Painting a still life is a good lesson in learning to see. It’s also fun in creating the setup to tell a story or a quirky mystery. #oilpainting #iheartart @artexponewyork #artbymilessa
