About the Item

Elena Burykina's "Pearly Shell" (2025) is an original, handmade oil painting on panel. Artist Statement: Armor Attributed to Kolman Helmschmid German ca. 1525 and later The helmet, pauldrons (shoulder defenses) of this armor are attributed to Kolman Helmschmid based on comparison with his known works. The helmets distinctive snub-nosed visor appears to be a form that he originated and used on three other helmets, all dating from the mid-1520s. The decoration of these elements is typical of the style of Daniel Hopfer of Augsburg (about 1470-1536), a celebrated armor-etcher and printmaker, who is known to have decorated armors made by members of the Helmschmid family. Historical references per the Metropolitan Museum of Art. About the Artist: Elena is an artist based in Chattanooga, TN USA. Elena always wanted to be an artist. As a child in Ukraine, she received a classical art education which she used for over a decade as an architect. It was an applied form of her desire to create art. Elena moved away from architecture into teaching art to children and painting when she could, and finally she was able to focus all her time being an artist and learning. She moved to America in 2013 and turned her full attention to painting. She tries to use every opportunity to learn anything new – new tools, mediums, techniques – anything new at all. Elena’s favorite subjects to paint are people with their personalities, moods, thoughts, and favorite things. “I really like to explore the personalities of my models through building the structure of portraiture with oil paint and paintbrush.” Her current focus is portraiture. She seeks a connection with the model that she can translate to the surface. Elena is a member of The Portrait Society of America. She received an award of Signature Status with the Portrait Society of America in 2022.In
