Interview - Artist - Ellena Olson

At the age of 15, already having a primary art education and some experience behind me, I was unsure in which direction to develop my skills and where it would lead.

One day I came across a book by John Cosmosky, 'Automotive Airbrushing: Stunts and Special Effects. It was one of the turning points in my life. I realized that I could combine two hobbies - art and cars! Since childhood, I adored colorful, beautiful car models, not dolls :)

In his book, John talked about the unique possibilities that allow you to turn production cars into unique and inimitable.

This idea inspired me a lot, and I wanted to contribute to the development of culture in general and airbrushing in particular. In addition, I wanted to create beauty.
