People in Pastel

Reflection

Pastel on pastel card. Drawn with kind permission from a photograph by Gabriel Schkolnick.

I know strong women. I play an outdoor sport in all weathers where people break bones. I know women with huge emotional strength: carers, foster parents, teachers, paramedics etc.

But as well as our strength, inside all of us is beauty and a childlike vulnerability too. This is what I wanted to capture in this study.

This drawing is for all the woman out there. We are not one thing but many.

Prints are from a limited edition of 250.
