Today was abstract painting day. I'm not good at abstract painting, so I had to throw out a lot of miniatures before I understood and felt the power of non-figurative art.

Here's my best! Giverny. I'm thinking of doing a full-length piece. And I still need to add a little color)))

Кувшин белых роз

Вернулась к графике, такой кайф отдохнуть от цвета и заморочек с ним.

Нет более спокойного и умиротворяющего пейзажа чем шотландский. Просто палитра мечты!

31 декабря. Утро, необычайное суровое небо… будет снег. Беру коробку с мелками, кусочки бумаги от старых работ и начинаю фиксировать день который никогда больше не повторится. Неловкими движениями, не понимая как можно ухватить переменчивое настроение природы за 15 минут закрашиваю бумагу. Вот оно 9:40 утра. Некрасивое, неверное, но все же для меня эмоциональное.

Время летит со скоростью мечущегося снега разыгравшейся вьюги. Да и сама вьюга показалась — это самый мой любимый набросок (13:30). Чем драматичней погода, тем легче мне дается работа, что близко к сердцу то понятно…

Тут должно быть продолжение, но его не будет. Маленькие истории самодостаточны, да и меня клонит в сон, пойду укроюсь белым теплым одеялом.

Nasturium

oil pastel, paper 29x35 cm 2026 symbolism

As I worked on the painting, the idea of the second bouquet evolved into the idea of the cycle of life.

[elenalecart]

Today I sketched a nasturtium. I wanted to play with the idea that the shadow is a second bouquet.

I think the painting should be done with warm and cheerful colors, bright ones, and of course chinoiserie and polka dots.❤️ circles

I hope I can implement the idea, otherwise it will be sad to throw it away.

'Peal'

gouache, paper, 2025

I tried out a new theme and palette. I like it, but something is missing. There's no drama!

I immortalized my beloved cat, Lapka (Paw), at my husband's request. Mom's little beauty is dad's little monster, ha-ha)))

Pine Grove gouache, 59x29 cm 2025

I had such a hard time with these pine trees. I think the painting shows there's no lightness, just meticulousness. I'm so mad at myself. I think this picture is shit, but I have to keep it, I’ll love it over time.

Study based on the work and photos by Patrick Okrasinski (?).

Just finished a seemingly non-erotic but actually still erotic illustration 😂

Spirals (belt) in wu xing painting denote the element of water (Yin energy, female). The manifestation of the emotions of "Water" is tenderness.

The position of the hands form is a triangle, with the upwards apex, symbolizing the masculine principle, directed towards the blossoming peony.

A blossoming, fragile flower envelops a finger - an allusion to lust, sex. The color of a peony can be interpreted in different ways, red is the color of a joyful event, pink means naive love, bright feelings. The peony itself is associated with wealth, prosperity, but I was attracted to it as a symbol of beauty.

Colors, shape, movement, blush on the body and cheeks, soft lips, a half-open kimono. Yes.

"Tomoko Maeda's first flower"

digital collage, 2025

The collage featured an illustration by Yayoi Kusama and on traditional patterns

Returned to my favorite graphics and Japan. I grew up in a city located between China and Japan, so the influence of Asia could not pass me by. Cartoons, food, clothes and other little things in life were tightly intertwined with "Russian culture".

You can gobble up potatoes with go bao zhou, or snacking on "Korean" carrots , he-he. I miss Chinese cuisine… I'm hungry. Ha-ha))) Thoughts are lost.

I apologize if the signature is unclear and written incorrectly. The first word is my name, Elena. The second, after dot, means forest (LEC in runglish), which is a word composed of the first letters of my last name (L), first name (E), and patronymic (C).

"180 days of waiting"

digital art, symbolism, 2025

I had a nose. A gorgeous nose! And a pear, or rather pears. One, two, three…six. And somehow it just happened: this way and that, here a bit of blue, here a leaf tossed, here a garland to hang. And she… She was born! As Venus emerged from the foam, so my, my pear appeared from a seed.
