I came across the work of Elizabeth Bauman a while ago now and instantly fell in love with her vintage-photograph inspired portraits. She mostly works in acrylics but I've just happened upon her wonderful blog (how did I miss that before?) and found that she also has works in oils and even embroidery. Every time I look at her work it's an instantaneous plunge into some kind of nostalgia of the Edward Hopper kind and I just love it :) Her pieces remind me of the fabulous homes that this lovely lady features.
You can see more of Bauman's work on her Flickr Photostream and her Website.... and you can even buy pieces from her Etsy Store.

Wow Kylie!
I love the colour palettes she uses -
very inspirational! And the embroidery is gorgeous, mixing the fabric in too.
Stunning. I love the colours too. Wow!
I had seen the embroidered piece somewhere already, + now enjoyed being introduced to the paintings... I especially like the figures set into a landscape...
They are gobsmackingly gorgeous. With one heck of a lovely painterly effect in embroidery...
Her paintings definitely have a Hopper-like quality. They have a haunting quality to them.
I LOVE these! They are fantastic portraits!! I collect them!! Thanks for Inspiring!! Best, Connie
Hi Kylie, there's something magical, and moving about Elizabeth's paintings. they have a contemplative and very striking effect on the viewer (I think). And I love the Fine little Day blog! It's other worldly! xo Hope you're well and having fun. xo hugs, Kristina
