My charcoal drawing ’Wishful’ #shorts - Thank you for watching!

’Wishful’ #shorts charcoal on paper self-portrait . Drawing Tutorials: Prints of my drawings available: Thank you for your support. Silvie . I love working with very simple motives, I love to capture something so abstract something so elusive as an inner state and embody it in a concrete real form. A simple form but with many possible interpretations. In this drawing I wanted to create a very simple motive with a strong dynamics - the movement in the hair. I was inspired by many legendary artists such as Richard Anedon (the way he captured hair movement), Herb Ritts, Bert Stern and his sense of light as if the subject was in a dream (that’s where I created the white clothes fading into a light), David Sims and his dynamic portraits for Jil Sander campaigns, Craig McDean, Paul McLean, Charlotte Robin etc. They all work with simplicity yet telling incredible stories. .
