Hello, my name is Elena. Selena Sashina - My creative nickname under which I create my works of art. Today my works are in private collections in the USA, France, Belgium, Japane and Ukraine.
**********************************************************************
I am a Ukrainian artist. I started to draw in a very early childhood. At the university I received an education in the specialty of art culture. The last ten years I began to painting tightly and devote all my activities to her. Since 2011, this has become my profession.

I work in unique author's techniques of painting, using materials such as oil, acrylic, watercolor, canvas.I really love various experiments with the method of applying paints to the canvas, so I use both a palette knife and brushes, and my own fingers, if it is appropriate in a particular work. Also, I experiment with methods of applying acrylic fill on the canvas and get interesting unusual results of work - the spontaneous manifestation of images on the canvas after the paints dry. I define this type of painting for myself as "existential surreal impressionism", and I really love this method. All my  paintings was painted using the author's unique technique and Contains a huge number of small interesting surreal details. This creates a desire for prolonged contemplation of the picture, and immerses the mind in a meditative state. The projections of your mind will allow you to find super interesting nuances in the picture and develop imagination.
