About the Item
Elena Burykina's "Halfway" is an original, handmade oil painting that depicts a woman with her hands folded and supporting her chin as she stares forward, her face cast in light and obscured in shadow from a nearby window.
Artist Statement:
My name is Olena Burykina. I was born in Ulan-Ude, a city in the Russian Far East, in 1977.
In 1985, my family moved west to Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine. It was there that I received my first classical art education. For eleven years of primary and secondary schooling and during 4 years of art school for children, I was taught drawing, painting, sculpture, and art history.
In 1994, I used this education to transition into the field of architecture, where I continued my training in drawing and painting. I completed a Bachelor’s degree in architecture and a Master’s degree in city planning, and I began a career as an architect.
After working for more than a decade as an architect, I returned my full attention to art in 2011. I began teaching children in a private art school in Dnepropetrovsk. This small step eventually led me to leave my architectural consulting in Ukraine and Russia to focus again on painting.
In 2013, I moved to the United States and began working full time as an artist. In 2016, I started work with linoleum block prints, and I have started a collection of flowers and bridges. With this series I won an Emerging Artist Scholarship at the 2017 4 Bridges Art Festival in Chattanooga, Tennessee. In 2018, I participated in a group exhibition Women Painting Women at Customs House Museum & Cultural Center in Clarksville, Tennessee. Featuring artists are Linda Brandon, Elena Burykina, Alia El-Bermani, Gaela Erwin, Ann Piper, Tonja Sell, Pamela Wilson. I continue my education as an artist by attending workshops in a private local atelier. My favorite subjects are people with their personalities, moods, thoughts, and favorite things. I work with different mediums such as oil and watercolor paints, etching and linoleum block printing.

Elena Burykina
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, and 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.

"Where The Swamps Sing" (2024) By Nadezda, Original Oil Surrealist Painting
Located in Denver, CO
Nadezda's beautiful new oil on panel painting "Where The Swamps Sing" (2024) is a surrealist Slavic portrait of a woman dressed in traditional Russian clothing, standing stoically in front of a bizarre scene, with iconography of demons' heads towered up with a cat resting atop it, deep in an abstracted symbolic forest.
Nadezda is a painter, sculptor, photographer, and concept artist. Her artwork is focused on narratives carefully gathered from the hidden chambers of her imagination as well as live theater-inspired work with actors, dancers, and models. Like a quilt stitched of poetic realities, Nadezda’s mysterious world defies the mundane. With a non-linear creative process flowing between different media, the artist explores various vantage points in her creations. This dynamic approach inspires her mind’s eye to focus on the worlds within and evoke an uninterrupted, creative transmission which is then channeled through her paintings, drawings, sculpture, photography, writing and film.

"Sweetman" (2024) By Nadezda, Original Oil Surrealist Portrait Painting
Located in Denver, CO
Nadezda's beautiful new oil on panel painting "Sweetman" (2024) is a surrealist portrait of a young man, wearing goggles, tie-shorts and a seemingly impossible harness made of pies. Finely holding two lollipops out to the viewer, his presence is both inquisitive and lighthearted. He stands in a ribbon swirl of taffy, while a cat stares upwards at him with joy.

Located in Denver, CO
Nadezda's beautiful new oil on panel painting "Red Shoes" (2024) is a surrealist painting of an abandoned hospital interior, with an explorer peering through a doorway, out from the hall. Just behind the debris and rot rest the spirits of the room, out of view from the explorer.
