Elena Ivaniuk is a Ukrainian artist whose paintings have been featured in several solo and group exhibitions nationally. The central theme in her figurative works is women. Describing her artistic expression as being conceptual, Ivaniuk especially enjoys painting in black and white. For her, this simplicity expressly conveys what she endeavors to "tell the world". She often creates using a palette knife with oils on canvas.
