The work of Spanish artist Elena Moreno, who has been based in Galway since 2013 is currently on show at an exhibition at Renzo Cafe and Gallery at Eyre Street.
Passionate about art from a young age and fascinated with the creative process, Elena completed her studies in History of Art, Fine Art and Restoration between Valencia and Italy before settling in the West of Ireland.
She has been a full member of ENGAGE ART STUDIOS since 2017 and was one of the first artists at Francis Street Studios. Elena has recently debuted as an Art Teacher in collaboration with them.
Elena’s paintings represent various themes, though they focus mainly on landscapes. She primarily works with oil paint, though is currently experimenting with new mediums such as Cold Wax/oil with which she recreates the vibrant skies, textured rocks, and rugged landscapes of the West of Ireland.
She represents her surroundings with a technical skill and use of colour which captures our imagination.
