« For me, this work is about the connection between the sun, nature, the human soul, and inner peace. The sun gives us light and energy, while moments of silence and reflection allow us to reconnect with ourselves. »
— Elena Doljenkova, about Sunny SoulSunny Soul is a mixed-media portrait inspired by the warmth of the sun and the quiet strength of the human soul. The man’s closed eyes represent a moment of inner reflection, peace, and connection with himself. Warm colours, textures, and circular patterns create a feeling of sunlight, energy, and hope. The painting invites the viewer to pause, breathe, and find the light within.
I make layered stories about time, memory, and human experience — through symbolic images, natural forms, and the rich textures of mixed media. I was born and raised in Moldova, and as far back as I can remember, I have always been drawn to art. I would use whatever I could find—colour pencils, watercolours, gouache, and anything else that could become a tool for creating. Thirty years ago, I moved to Canada, always carrying a quiet dream that one day I would return to painting. That day finally came. Now, I am back to my favorite activity—and I can’t seem to stop. Painting has become a way for me to explore emotions, memories, ideas, and the beauty I see around me. In October 2026 I was part of Nocturne Art at Night Society (Nocturne).
