Who is Eliana
I’m going to tell you a secret.
I’m 35 years old and every day I get angry because I’m not where I want to be in life.
Perhaps you expected those artist-like descriptions, with lists of academic studies and exhibitions in art galleries.
The truth is that I started drawing on the little desk in my bedroom because every fiber of my soul told me to do it.
Nobody taught me how to do what you see here.
Currently, the best gallery that has exposed me are the walls of my art-studio.
These three women represent what I love: elegance, nature, eccentricity, symbolism.
With these three women I began my work with the stippling technique.
I often look at them to inspire me and remind myself what I am capable of.
About stippling art:
Many of you may think that the most important thing in stippling technique is precision. I believe patience is more important.
The moment when you realize that you’ve spent hours and hours doing dots like crazy and then you take a step back and realize you’ve only finished a very small part of the drawing (which, obviously, you decided to do on a huge sheet of paper because you felt inspired by some muse).
That is the moment when it doesn’t matter the quality of the paper or the quality of the ink or whether you are the queen of all the artists in the world. That’s the moment when you curse yourself and cry a little, but then you get back to work… because something inside tells you it’s the right thing to do.
