Influenced by the late 1960s drug scene and the war in Vietnam, Joel Elenberg's early 1970s exhibitions showed works "focussing on violence and cruelty. Close friendships, which included Brett and Wendy Whiteley, softened Elenberg's perspective and his work gave way to a series of tranquil watercolours and decorative paintings, inspired by nature."
