Ethereal flowers with petals like golden organza drift against a vaporous blue sky in Elena Filatov’s “Tender Anemone I and II” series. Born in Kazakhstan, Filatov studied art and music, which impart her work with a graceful, lyrical quality. Filatov initially worked as a designer and graphic artist in Chabarosvsk, Asia, and Portland, Oregon. Her experiences in these and other cultures have strongly influenced her creative growth. Living in Germany, the versatile Filatov adeptly paints an abundance of subjects, including flowers, landscapes and nude studies.
