Vladislav Yeliseyev

Night Cafe                         Watercolor

    Vladislav Yeliseyev combines his passions for plein air painting and watercolor to create dynamic images that give the viewer glimpses of street scenes in Paris and Dubrovnik; the changing light of New Mexico; the seasons of Vermont; the boats of Zaton and Venice. How lovely to tour the world with the energetic strokes of a master watercolorist! Yeliseyev wrote to us about his childhood in Russia, his background in architecture and the inspiration of Rembrandt.

   My mother served as an economist within a large Soviet socialist corporation, while my father pursued a career as an engineer.

   Growing up, my parents were conscious of the challenges their child faced being exposed to the realities of the streets.

They understood the potential downsides of street life and sought to encourage development in a nurturing academic environment. (Read more . . . )
