Thank you for visiting my page! Any questions please ask.
My name is Elena Genkin. I live and create in Israel, where I have my own studio. Graduated from Voronezh Art School (Russia), during last years I participate in a variety of painting courses and learn from well-known artists. Today I'm a painter, a member of National Pastel Society of Russia, and an active member of local Artists Association.

As per mediums, I divide my time between watercolors, pastels, charcoal and mix between them. As painting tools in addition to brushes, I use palms, fingers, palette knifes and even more. I mostly paint landscapes and cityscapes, whether done in a traditional style or more loosely when the landscapes become abstract inner spaces. My path is to look for new effects, a new look at the expression of ideas, harmonious combinations of colors, shapes, rhythm that cannot be repeated. Always I look ahead and go my own way. Color became my language - this is the way I can express myself best of all other languages. Painting leads me each time to a new exploration of being in the moment. I will never stop. ...
