Predominantly a still life artist, Eleanor Driscoll also paints landscapes and seascapes. Her work appeals to many art enthusiansts because they depict the familiar feeling of objects and environments. Each time, she imparts the pleasure she experienced when first viewing these particular subjects. She is greatly influenced by the Old Dutch and Flemish masters.

"I choose oil as my medium because I like to use oil to build up glazes," she says. "It gives a feeling of depth and solidity; overlapping and working into the painting rather than drawing edges."

Eleanor studied painting for many years with the late Helen Van Wyk (teacher, friend, and mentor); the late Jack Callahan; the late Charles Vickery , and Don Stone. She exhibited in several shows and received numerous awards over the past forty years of professional painting. The Grumbacher publication "Palette Talk" featured Mrs. Driscoll. She also assisted the editor on a revised edition of a book on floral painting by Helen Van Wyk.

She is an artist member of the North Shore Art Association and The Newburyport Art Association. Her paintings can be found in many private collections.
