ELENA MAHONEY

As an artist, paint has become the main medium through which I explore, discover and polish my potential as a person. Through the techniques of oil, acrylic, watercolour and gouache I direct my fascination towards the human and animal figure as the primary motif of my work. Painting in my case is presented as a continuous search for beauty. Guided by the determination to follow in the footsteps of my influences in the art world and the quality

 I find in their work.

My paintings, characterized by their exaggerated colours and magical settings, pursue my image of beauty that I feel to a certain extent bigger than my own being, ending up with an independent, subjective and at the same time universal work. 

The faithful representation of the figures in my paintings is combined with the gestures and versatility that the medium itself offers me. Drips, organic and intuitive brushstrokes, subtle details, drawings and glazes cover my work granting rawness and abstraction to it.
