About Elena Jochum

Elena has been painting her entire life and went to Maryland Institute College of Art for a degree in Fine Art in addition to a BS in Psychology from Towson University. She has been working as a graphic designer for companies like National Geographic and Disney for over 16 years.

Elena Jochum recently showcased her watercolor “Subject or Matter” at a juried exhibition through Virginia Watercolor Society at the Academy Center of the Arts. She also showcased her work at Fairfax Spotlight on the Arts, Native Plants of Virginia Symposium at George Mason University, Winery at Sunshine Ridge Farm and a booth for her new business, Tidewater Trove, at the Manassas Bee Festival.

Elena Jochum prepared information on how to get started or improve your outcomes in booking an art commission with clients. We will go over promoting your work, bulletproofing your written agreements and payment methods. This will improve your outcome when being commissioned now and in the future.
