Elena Senilnik, the Ukranian wire work designer behind Lena Senilnik Art, creates beautiful and fluid wire wrapped gemstone designs. Her distinctive style often turns irregular shaped stones into works of art! Her ammonite pieces are original and unusual as is her way of placing the gemstones off center for some designs.
As you can see she works with copper and uses soldering as well as wire wrapping techniques. She has a remarkable talent for envisioning designs from the gemstones themselves.

What also caught my attention were two particular continent pieces where she extended her wire work to create Australia and Africa pendants. Truly unique.

Elena says she became passionate about her art after she stayed home to care for her children.

ReplyDeleteWhen you see art like this you know it's better to just buy a piece that speaks to you rather then attempting something on your own.
