Hello, and thank you for visiting. I'm Elena. Despite years of mathematical training, I occasionally do things that can't be checked with a proof. This little gallery is a collection of paintings and shell creations I've made purely for the fun of it. I hope you enjoy wandering through it as much as I enjoyed making it. And if you have a comment — kind, curious, or even gently skeptical — I'd be happy to read it.

Elena, I love everything you make! Your paintings have a style that's unmistakably yours, and your sense of color is wonderful. The oyster shells are little works of art on their own, and you have a way of making the painting and the natural shape of each shell come together beautifully. The larger shells give you more room to work with, allowing you to create complete works of art that look amazing.
I'm really glad that you now have it all together in one place so that everyone can enjoy it.
These are so beautiful, bright and optimistic! Thank you for sharing your works with us.
The sheer number of works is striking. Not all of them are equally good. The painted seashells are reminiscent of Palekh art.
Beautiful work. Love the paintings and shells! The cover photo of you is great, too. That scene looks familiar, where was it taken? Love you, Cindy
Exceptional work and great plan for retirement :)
Amazing! Especially shells
Elena, thank you for sharing your work! It's warm, original, and full of personality. I hope this gallery keeps growing.
I have just one question: when are you planning to add "professional artist" to your resume?
