Elena Makarov

Artist Bio

My name is Elena Makarov, I reside in a beautiful New Hope PA. I have been living in the US for almost all of my adulthood. I am a successful business owner, graduated with an MA from Moscow University, and got credits in finance and Art from Warton School and UPenn.

My ceramic sculptures were chosen to participate in Small Favors Clay Studio 2024 Philadelphia, 2025 Splendor of Blue MVA ART Gallery PA, and different internet exhibits, some are in private collections. My current works are also present on the Macabre Gallery website.

I take lessons and workshops at the Lisa Naples studio, which I absolutely love for its professionalism, and structure and at the same time filled with so much positive energy that enables students to express themselves with so much freedom not being afraid of being judged or banal labeled. I also work with white clay at my small home studio.
