"Waves" is a mesmerizing painting that beckons the viewer to dive into the depths of its infinite shades and complex visual narrative. The canvas is engulfed in a symphony of azure, as various shades of blue and turquoise harmoniously converge and diverge. Evoking a sense of tranquility, it seems as though the painting comes alive with the ebb and flow of the ocean tides. The piece draws the viewer into a world of abstraction, where one is encouraged to ponder the essence of the natural world and the true nature of creation. A myriad of different interpretations can be derived from this single work of art, as each observer internalizes the waves' rich, flowing colors and motion. The subtle interplay between light and dark lying beneath the surface lends itself to a profound exploration of human emotion and contemplation.
I'm Elena Alexander, a Montreal-based artist. I create hard edge abstract paintings that explore the pure power of color relationships. Through meticulously crafted geometric compositions, I combine digital precision with traditional painting techniques to create works where colors interact, influence, and amplify each other in their purest form.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
I've always been fascinated by how colors make us feel. Think about the calm you feel looking at a clear blue sky, or the energy you get from a vibrant sunset. My paintings explore these powerful effects of color through clean, precise geometric designs.
Each painting starts with a specific feeling or mood I want to capture. Using modern design tools and traditional painting techniques, I create compositions where colors interact in ways that catch your eye and invite you to pause and look closer. Through careful placement and proportion, each color gets its own space to shine while creating fascinating relationships with its neighbors.
My process combines digital precision with hands-on craftsmanship. After careful planning, I custom mix each color and apply multiple layers by hand, using precise taping techniques to create sharp, clean edges. This attention to detail ensures that each piece has rich, lasting color that will maintain its impact for years to come.
