E.B. Rothwell stayed connected with her ancestors. She officially changed her name for her artworks to E.B. with the B" for Bartholomew, her birth name.

A few years after her mother Stella died at age 89 Elaine and her sister Mary began remembering the good things about her and their childhood home. From these came five etchings presented as the Here's Mama series.

Other memories followed, leading to her self-portraits and one of her husband Bill's faces hidden in the sky.

She used remembered places from her childhood in a set of etchings she originally named the Stairways series. Then after visiting her sister, who rented the upstairs flat in the house where they had grown up in Minneapolis, E.B. took photographs of the house and some other stairways. These became the basis for the six color etchings which became part of her Steps series.
