Wrote Venue Magazine of Elkanovich,"Developing his own 3D technique using pâtissier tools from piping bags and irons to mixers, Elkanovich’s bailiwick of textile application emanates throughout his artwork like a rhapsodic menagerie in a hyper-realistic fantasia of color and 3D illusionary opulence."
