Why study with them?

She is a figurative impressionist abstract painter whose art revolves around states of mind, mental healing and femininity.
Elena Parau's international demand for her colourful textured originals has been increasing every year. Her paintings are found in private collections on 5 continents in over 19 countries.
She speaks 4 languages fluently: English, Spanish, Italian and Romanian.
Elena’s work is well known for its sophisticated, elegant style and fresh color palette. She uses her brushes as a powerful tool of self-expressions. As an artist she translates the surrounding world into a language of colors, transforms the emotions into graceful forms and refined shapes. The use of brilliant color schemes and intriguing texture makes her artworks stand out and reflects the unique ability to create visual impact on the viewer.
She likes to immerse the viewer in unique and comfortable experiences of colors and textures. She likes art that is pretty, mysterious, interesting, feminine, sensual, and that expresses a special mood. She likes to paint in an abstract way and to combine different elements of flowers, human bodies, texture, but there are many other ideas she is trying to capture. Also, she likes to leave space for the fantasy of the viewer.
With a teaching approach that helps artists connect with their intuition, Elena loves guiding retreats where creativity flourishes.
