Hello, I’m Ela Szczepaniak. I live and work in Krakow, Poland. I'm an interior designer. I have created designs for private houses, hostels, restaurants as well as scenography for photo sessions. Most of the pieces I use for decoration such as paintings or lampshades I create myself. They all come from my fascination with textures, overlapping layers of materials and experimenting with different compotents and techniques. In my paintings I use oil on canvas as a basis. Then I start combining it with dry pastels, silver coating or add pieces of different materials starting from photo paper through fabric to cardboard.
