Yana Wolanski
I am a pencil portrait artist, striving for realism without loosing the wonderful subtlety of the pencil marks themselves. I have drawn for as long as I can remember and am continually fascinated by the versatility of the medium. My work focuses on contrast, whether it is the destructive or creative human nature of the subjects I choose, or the tonal contrasts of the graphite. I strive for realism through detail and honesty to every wrinkle, pore and hair which I use to breath life into my portraits. For more information please visit my website...more
