Bulatova began painting at a young age, and the arts were an integral part of her childhood. “I really enjoy painting,” Bulatova said. “It gives me an opportunity to meet all kinds of people. I think the main reason is that I want to make something I love. When you love something, you enjoy it and you never work a day in your life.”

Her paintings explode with vibrant colors featuring significant splashes of metallic paint and the use of mixed media. She has enjoyed this past season of art shows because it gave her a chance to interact with potential customers and reveal the motivations behind her work.

“I think it’s good to bring a young vibe and something fresh,” said Bulatova.  “All of my work is very bright, very colorful, and very positive. I like to bring energy and positive message in my paintings.”

Elena creates her widely collected paintings and sculptures at her studio in Palm Springs, Ca. Bulatova exhibits full-time at her namesake galleries Elena Bulatova Fine Art at City Center Las Vegas, Palm Desert, and Laguna Beach, California.

Bulatova’s artistic career catapulted in California putting hundreds of her Abstracts Paintings and her famous sculptures Lollipops and Popsicles  "Sweet Life" series to many important private and public collections around the globe during the last 10 years. Elena’s artworks are now in many private collections in the USA, Canada, Mexico, Australia, and Russia. Elena Bulatova Galleries 2017

Punk Me Tender

BIOGRAPHY

Punk Me Tender (1982) keeps his identity well hidden even though his artworks are highly recognizable. Earlier in his career, he came up with his moniker due to his great love for the legendary Elvis Presley and started to see the street as his canvas. As a promising street artist, he managed to leave his mark across LA and fashion some of the city’s most impressive murals. He is an advocate for the sophistication of the art of sensuality and his mission is to explore freedom through photography layered with vibrant color and mixed media.

He is inspired by women, fashion and style, and offers a new, more unfiltered look on the female body, claiming that desire is the biggest drive in our souls. He usually conceptualises his three-dimensional works and modernises perception rooted in culture by making it relevant for more people, hoping to urge all to simply open their minds and reject old stereotypes.

TECHNIQUE

Whether graffiti art, a mural, or photography, spontaneity is integral to his craft; he never follows a strategy or traditional creative approaches and has set no rules along his journey. He only creates works that are authentic, graphic, and raw: often black and white or colored with splashes of pink and blue. And often real pieces of clothing or exotic materials such as real butterflies. The theme of his artwork is consistent: women with an essence of empowered sexuality.
As the artist reveals, for him a mix of graffiti and fabric is an original approach that never fails to intrigue and captivate the viewer.

Roni M

Hailing from Israel and inspired by emotion, style, and culture around the world, Roni M. has made quite a statement on the west coast of the United States with her large, colorful paintings. Her fun, quirky style is both bright and beautiful, however, it doesn't stop there. Roni M. has a serious side as well. Blacks, blues, and golds come through in her other works evoking deep emotions such as contemplation, and passion. Roni M. is certainly both sides of a stunning and thought-provoking coin; and no matter which side you land on, the results will leave you breathless.  

Roni M is intrigued by Japanese anime culture These eye-popping hair colors work as visual cues to suggest certain personality types. Blue, for instance, is correlated with cool and intellectual but also characters that can never catch a break. Japanese pop culture has a lot of famous characters with nonstandard hair color Red strongly suggests a tomboyish, inconsiderate, loud, often headstrong, “leader” archetype. Light purple typically signifies some sort of detached, noble, cultured, dainty, often even mysterious, “fantasy princess” archetype Nothing makes a statement like a grand piece of art. Evocative and impactful, large-scale works convey color and mood on a more impactful level. Ultra-feminine and whimsically executed, her oversized portraits of bright-colored hair girls are bringing a chic-to-the-core boost of fun. Balancing super-bright colors with quieter, toned-down elements keeps the focus on the art, without seeming fussy.
