Elvee  is a Chicago based portrait artist and commercial illustrator.

Over the years, she created thousands of images from icons to billboards,

advertising assignments, editorial pieces and fine art.

Currently 3 large posters from her series on "Fitness and Exercise" can be seen as a part of the set decor in gym scenes on "The New Adventure of Old Christine".

During the first part of the 90's,  on regular basis she created many

airbrush celebrities portraits for "Women",  "Men",  "Music" and "Potpourri" sections for Playboy Magazine.

Always fascinated by female face and form, couple of years ago she started to create portraits, silhouettes and "Neo-Deco" figures.

She's very strongly influenced by Art Deco master Erte, Art Nouveau genius A. Mucha and 80's star Patrick Nagel-

loves the decorative, stylized shapes, intricate patterns and how design and figurative elements are masterfully woven together in simplified forms.

She strives to achieve similar iconic images full of powerful "aesthetic emotions".
