About the Item
Artist Comments
A vibrant bouquet of sunflowers bursts with color, their golden petals and rich brown centers contrasting sharply against a deep green vase. A lively background of swirling purples, blues, and pinks, dotted with lighter accents, creates a whimsical atmosphere. Artist Yelena Sidorova applies dyes and acrylic paints on silk to create the piece. She uses black and gold resists to control the spreading, and as the final step, she steams the surface to enhance its vibrancy and ensure its color-fastness.
About the Artist
Artist Yelena Sidorova creates diverse subjects, from still lifes and architecture to figurative compositions. She transforms a plain piece of silk into art inspired by the world around her, infusing every drop of dye with a touch of magic into her existence. "My art is a gentle therapist who helps me through the darkest periods of my life and illuminates the joyous times," says Yelena. She obtained her Master's degree in Fine Art with a major in Oil Painting and Art History before moving to the United States in 1997. Despite the hurdles of establishing a creative career, her talent and strong work ethic propelled her to success in the competitive art world. Yelena works in her well-organized and spacious basement studio, where her feelings, dreams, and thoughts materialize. Beyond her art, Yelena enjoys walking, cycling, and chatting with her daughter in their favorite café.

Artist Comments
A glowing still life of sunflowers and wildflowers arranged on a rich blue backdrop. Artist Jeff Fleming describes his painting style as kinetic impressionism. Jeff started the piece with a pencil sketch on the canvas, then with gloved hands, he generously applied oil paint using his fingers. Jeff says he created this scene purely from imagination.
About the Artist
Artist Jeff Fleming uses fingerpainting to create exuberant portraits of dogs. Growing up in Southern California, Jeff was first introduced to fingerpainting in kindergarten. He painted through high school and college and won several art awards, including Best of Show in a city wide student competition. After graduating with a degree in journalism and advertising, he went to work as an art director. For the next 40 years, he created print, radio and television ads for a number of top agencies. "After retiring in 2019, the clouds of stress and pressure cleared and allowed me to set my creative energy free," says Jeff. He began developing new techniques focused on the excitement and energy of painting. Today, he uses a variety of methods and tools, including fingerpainting wearing nitrile gloves, traditional paint brushes, bamboo shish kebab sticks, kite string, spraypaint and splattering. While working, Jeff always listens to music, including Broadway musicals, dance music and rhythmic Hawaiian tunes.
