My name is Helena McElrone. I have been painting since I could hold a paint brush, thanks to my dad, whom of which I earn all my creativity from. Having a dad as an art teacher, I have had the advantages of being able to develop my skills as an artist through help and critique. Art has always been my passion and I strive to put in my best effort in all of my pieces.
-------------------------------------------
I plan to create art that reflects classical pieces with a contemporary twist, making each artwork both historical and relevant to society today. I myself am a partisan in many social justice issues, incorporating these issues and raising awareness about these problems with my artwork is my goal. If my art can give people an alternative perspective or altered perception on an issue, and critically think about the societal impacts, then I will have truly become a successful artist. Creating art has allowed me to express my emotions without using words, allowing me to use the negativity to create a beautiful piece of art out of pain, it will always be one of the most fulfilling accomplishments of my life.
