TITLE: Woman I 8 x 10 in | Charcoal & Soft Pastel on Paper
ARTIST STATEMENT:
As an artist, I am much drawn to drawing women than men. I think it is because I am a woman as well, and I wanted to portray their rawness and beauty in my drawing. It is also my way of empowering them to accept their wholeness ― flaws and all ― because I know what it's like to look in the mirror and not like what you see. (You can check your number of words at Word Counter.)
I have included this Artist Statement practice because it is important to know the purpose as to why we chose the subject we are drawing/painting. And in order to connect more in a much deeper sense. Please do not get taken aback with this. Whatever you write is valid. I just want to have a brief explanation about your artwork.
I will be giving away a total of 20 SBD! 5 lucky winners will each get 4 SBD at the end of the contest which I will transfer directly to their steemit wallet. The reward pool can change in the coming months depending on the support I'll be getting, but I am sure as hell I'll work harder to meet my goals for this contest.
Excited to see beautiful artworks very soon! Thank you for reading and please do join.
This initiative is closest to my heart because art saved me in so many ways. Posting, judging, and choosing the best among the rest is gonna be tough, but I will do it fairly and will reward accordingly. Resteeming, upvoting, and other means of support will be much appreciated. Thank you for reading and Namaste!
