Marble statue - Study drawing - unframed

This drawing is an interpretation of the marble statue of a member of the imperial family, Augustan or Julio Claudian. I have always being amazed by the ancient Greek and Roman cultures, and I find impressive how these sculptures were made such a long time ago.

In the drawing I have attempted too interpret more the movement than keeping the form fully realistic, being aware that as statue there is stillness present, however the movement of a feeling an emotion is behind every artwork, in my opinion.

I have used charcoal, graphite pencils and soluble graphite for the variety of lines. Framed Drawing can add a simple, minimalistic and modern touch to any wall. I am personally envisioning it in a study, bedroom, next to the bookcase... but it can be anywhere :).

I am a professional artist with a vision of bringing beauty and waking up power and emotions through my creations. My main source of inspiration comes from the underwater world of our oceans, the nature, the mystery of this existence and all living creatures (including humans ;) ). I am originally from Czech Republic, but with a strong polish background I am a mix of two cultures who wanted to became a mermaid. For me creating art is not my work, but it is a reason why I was born, my gift. Ideas for paintings come daily, though my experiences and my dreams. My favourite medium is oil paint - in my opinion this medium really speaks through, and changes the painting to become alive. However I also use other materials to help creating an atmosphere and background. There is a lot colour of my artworks, which for me represents emotions and dynamics, same with the brush strokes that brings up the right energy and passion. My journey is only at the beginning but I am very excited where it leads.. Thank you for appreciating my art.
