Helen Illichova, 1958 | Abstract Figurative painter

Елена Ильичева is an Ukrainian painter, une of the most exclusive artists in the Eastern Europe.

Helen Illichova is the only painter in the world who uses rather unusual authoring techniques for writing paintings.

The artist paints the picture with his hand with the cotton sock on it.
With this special technique, Elena achieves a vivid expressiveness of the images, in which her characteristic acute sense of the beauty of the surrounding world is reflected.

Elena is rightfully called a master of still life and a woman's image.
