THE GATEKEEPER Painting

Yelena York is a Visual Artist living in America. Throughout the past 10 years as an artist, Yelena has managed to impress art critics and collectors with her exquisite detailed works. York’s first collection was created with markers and 22 karat gold leaves on canvases. She mastered the art of using markers and making them look like brushed paintings, which earned her recognition and international awards. York followed her career by creating her own extremely detailed style of pointillism/ stippling works that had never been seen before in the Art world. Over 5 million Ink dots have been used on each piece of art to create the realistic and deep color tones of the ink, further accentuated by adding her unique style of layering paint patterns until they become 3 dimensional to complete the look. Yelena’s meticulous pen and ink pieces leave no room for error, each finished to precision with no mistakes, lest she begin all over again. A true perfectionist at heart, York brings her magical energy and impeccable form to each piece that can only be admired with awe and appreciated for its own excellence.
