About Elina Romanov

2004 Graduated from St.Petersburg Pedagogical University of Herzen 2012 Academic Drawing Classes by Ukrainian artist O. Samoylenko 2012 Professional Illustration by Miroedova School The main esthetic driving forces that shaped my way of painting are realism merged with abstract techniques, that allow to depict human body and physical expression of emotions. Psychological education had given me a gift of an perpetual interest for figure–ground organization of space which is a vital necessity for recognizing objects through vision. And so many of my paintings are focused on objects or figures being sequestered from the environment in attempt to extract a momentary emotion or movement, or light position, which is gone in the next very moment. ‘Offset’ asymmetric composition is my favorite tool to embody this exact moment of focused attention. What drives me: light, real life objects, disrupted realism, materialism, limited number of natural colors, intelligence. The most valuable figures in the art world that helped me think and work in a way i do, are Sally Gabori and Alex Kanevsky.
