Still life with sunflowers and a butterfly Painting

Hello! Allow me to introduce myself: My name is Elena Kirova. I am a second-generation russian-german artist, born on 1994, Russia. My life and work are deeply connected with the study of art and travel. Since 2016, I have lived in various countries, including China, Colombia, and Spain, where I drew inspiration from local cultures and architecture. From an early age, I was fascinated by human anatomy and explored numerous encyclopedias featuring great works of art. My favorite piece is “The Swan Princess” by Mikhail Vrubel. In September 2023, I began my artistic education at the online academy “Ogivitel-ART,” where I learned a unique painting — the technology of optical clearance (TOC). This method, also used by renowned Renaissance masters such as Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Titian, and Giorgione, combines the techniques of High Renaissance artists with modern approaches and tools. This allowed me to create outstanding works and earn my diploma from the academy. My paintings are inspired by realism and the styles of old masters. I strive to create pieces that showcase my technical skill while captivating viewers with their emotional depth and beauty. I would be delighted if you joined me on my artistic journey. If you have any questions or would like to learn more about my work, please feel free to reach out. Thank you for your interest and support! Best regards, Elena Kirova 🌟🎨
