Art Project by Elena Ilyina #FACES_2020 | Women from social networks Drawing

ART for me is intuition, feelings and emotions in every moment of life. Even in simple things, I see images that inspire my work. From early childhood, the best gift for me was the colored pencils and album for drawing that dad bought me. And it was better than chocolates. One of the favorite directions is the portrait. Most of all I am interested in people as images. I sought to combine graphics, painting and sculpture in my works. And I created own style in mixed technique. In my works, I try to capture not only a person's face or body, but also the beauty of his soul. In 2020, during the pandemic, I created Art Project #FACES_2020. I had 17 solo art exhibitions and participated in more than 50 group exhibitions in different countries. My paintings are in private collections in Italy, Japan, France, Germany, Spain, Sweden, the USA, Poland, Russia and Belarus, amongst others. I'm proud of that I took part with paintings and Art objects in charity auctions, including The Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts in Moscow.
