Celebrating Phoenix local artists at Agate Aroma

Current Featured Artist: Elena Petrova

Elena Petrova, a native Arizonan, draws profound inspiration from the rugged beauty of the Sonoran Desert. Her mixed-media works often incorporate natural pigments and crushed minerals, reflecting the geological tapestry of the region. A graduate of Arizona State University with a BFA in painting, Elena's art has been exhibited in galleries across Phoenix and Scottsdale, garnering recognition for its deep connection to the land.

"My work explores the natural patterns found in Arizona's landscapes, making Agate Aroma the perfect home for this series. The earthiness of the coffee and the shimmer of the gemstones here echo the very essence of my artistic spirit."
