Elahe Jalili

Painter, Sweden

“I am Elahe and I am a self-taught artist who creates detailed landscape paintings in acrylic paint on board and canvas. My work is often photorealistic, showing open views of nature. With those paintings, I seek to represent the rich variety of colours and textures of the plants, rolling hills, lakes, and more dramatic elements such as mountains and stormy skies. Painting has always been my passion but during the global pandemic, I have been able to give it my full attention. I am an optimistic person who believes in a better world.”
