Elena Valerie

On this page you will find a collection of oil painted flowers by an Australian artist Elena Valerie. Floral art in a form of a dancing flow of the harmony. Flowers were painted in realistic manner using a multitude of layers through the application of subtle glazing that created an almost glowing effect and spacious depth. The shining of light is magical and manifold transparent glazes emphasize the effect of a dazzling radiance through an object such as thin petals or skin. An Artist communicates through a collection of line, curvature and form, color and tone, and harmony seeking to create enchantment.
