A serene life, a quiet life, a peaceful life. A life that you can fill with truth.

That’s what we are seeking. Sometimes the paintings and portraits that we create show a truth that is wild, troubled, edgy. Sometimes they are dishonest, confused, and misplaced.

What drew us to the beautiful Elana was her aura when she stood still. There was no noise. There was no insecurity.

And such confidence comes from inner strength. Elana is just as confident know as she was before she “lost the weight”.

She lost 140 lbs. Really.

An entire Dallas Cowboy’s Cheerleader amount of weight. And she says she’s still not where she wants to be.

She’s walking (and dancing) proof that you are beautiful and valuable and any weight. That “inner beauty” and natural beauty do exist, and they can’t be silenced by your size.

That certainty and truth that she carries with her is palpable. Doesn’t just that the girl’s got a bad-ass tattoo, kick-ass charisma, and the longest legs e-v-e-r!

We think she looks absolutely perfect in every single one of her photos.

Thanks for spending your Tuesday with us, Elana!
