Elena Tezhe

I'm a Riga-based painter working in acrylic and oil, known for a bold, faceted style — scenes broken into sharp geometric planes and saturated color. My mission is simple: help people make the space around them more beautiful and joyful, and feel a little more energized about their own dreams.

My subjects range from architecture and interiors to animals and still life, always filtered through the same graphic, jewel-toned language. For some works I've built accompanying augmented reality projects — check the individual painting descriptions to see which ones.

I've shown my work in group and solo exhibitions in Riga and beyond since 2018, and I exhibit every summer at Wings of Riga, an art fair held at Riga's historic Spilve airport.
