Elena is based in the outer suburbs of Melbourne where she takes long walks surrounded by the beauty of the Australian bush. This influences her illustrations which specialise in animals and the natural world, although she is able to work on a wide variety of subject matter. Being skilled in many media, from traditional watercolours and acrylics, to digital, to mixed media, gives her the scope to meet any brief she may be given, be it publishing, web ready images, conceptual art or even jewellery design. She believes in always exceeding the client’s expectations, and looks forward to the challenge of a new brief.
