AMERICAN YELLOW WARBLER - bird, small painting, home decor Painting

Alena Vakhmistrova's paintings show the beauty and mystery of black in botanical and animalistic subjects. In many cultures, black is the color of sadness and mourning, but the artist has the opposite perception. For her, it is the color of calmness, peace and universal infinity. And gold in the paintings is a symbol of the divine light and warmth of our universe. After all, any light always begins with pitch darkness. The artist often traces lines, points and geometric shapes in her paintings. “The universe is a collection of energy lines that I see in my head. They create harmony, harmony and beauty in our world. And I try to be a guide who shows this to people in my paintings. Alena was born and raised in the city Dnipro, Ukraine. She graduated from the Dnepropetrovsk Theater and Art College, and then Kherson University with a degree in Fine Arts. At the same time, while studying at the university, Alyona taught drawing to children from 5-6 years old. After graduating from university, she went to work as an art teacher at a school and continued to paint in search of her own genre. Over time, the artist realized that she loves to depict nature and everything connected with it. Then, over the years, came the understanding of what her author's style should be and what she wants to bring to this world.
