#myevergrowingartcollection No. 1, Ellina Chetverikova, @ellinachetverikova, a marvelously talented artist and the sweetest human being! I had the pleasure of meeting Ellina during my undergraduate at @ritcias where we made this fine trade. Why am I so excited to share this first? Because I have FINALLY found the perfect frame for the piece. (Look, Ellina!, What do you think?) . This piece was made in 2014 when Ellina was working on her MFA thesis at RIT. She made many waterpeople, but this piece had so many experimental properties to it, that I was immediately drawn to it. Born in Ukraine and traditionally trained in drawing and painting, Ellina's thesis work discusses her transition from Ukraine to the United States. Ellina uses the idea of being submerged in water as a metaphor for all the sudden changes she experienced from her move. I enjoy Ellina's work so because of her soft alla prima painting and her sudden introductions to new mediums and ideas. Her painting is quite playful. Ellina is currently painting in Cincinnati, OH and was recently an Artist in Resident at @manifestgallery's Artist. Ellina's work has grown and she has begun to use more gouache than before. All beautiful work, I highly recommend checking out her work, following, and admiring her work at @ellinachetverikova or her website at www.ellinart.com . #myevergrowingartcollection: 'This upcoming year of 2018 I want to share some of the art I love. As an artist myself I get excited seeing how other artists think and create.. And occasionally I have the chance to own a piece by an artist I admire. I want to share with you some of the work I have (from my small yet ever growing collection) from artists which I believe have some marvelous talent.' . . . . . #happynewyear #2018 #newyearresolution #ellinachetverikova #cincinnatioh #cincinnati #painter #artcollector #collection #artlovers #oilpainting #newartist #newwork #happyhome #newyearnewme #happynew2018 #art #fineart #portraiture #roctheart @rochesterartcollectors
