Like many artists with academic backgrounds, in 2004, Elena started with realism in classic techniques: pencil drawing, watercolour, and oil. However, she got bored with copying the life around her (and the life wasn’t necessarily that beautiful and pleasant), and she turned to another path, more creative and full of freedom.
Now, her art blends whimsy, creativity, and vibrant colours, radiating happiness and fun. It embraces traditional elements with a quirky twist, creating a modern vintage aesthetic that captivates her audience and brings them to her art shows. Her collages are full of positive energy, fun and make everyone smile.
Through her art, Elena aims to inspire and evoke emotions, inviting viewers on an enchanting journey. It is stunning, thought-provoking, and explores timely themes. It is an authentic expression of who she is, sparking joy and wonder in those who encounter it.
With numerous exhibitions across Canada, Elena’s artworks are part of private collections of individuals in Canada, Czech Republic, France, Russia, Spain, UK, Ukraine, USA
