Elena Baydina

My goal is to creatively display a story through the glass of imagination and capture the enchantment of dissociated reality. I work with different mediums, including watercolor, oil, gauche, pencils, ink, artist pens, pastel, digital applications, coffee, and pretty much everything that can be used for drawing and creating.
