Several graphite illustrations. I haven’t worked with pencils since high school (a million years ago) and it has been really nice to get back into it :)

How amazing is that interpretation of my drawing! Now every time I will have doubts about making art, the purpose of it, every time I’ll think that is has no sens and use for anyone I’m gonna read those words as a reminder that someone out there has found a value in it, and maybe felt a bit better and empowered. ✨

“Innocence” — Dianita
Graphite on paper (Moleskine)
5in x 7in
When we shake all the world’s opinions, their impressions of who we are and what we’ve become according to them, then we start finding ourselves. We own our beauty, our power and we bloom. We are able to embrace our innocence again and make it part of our world because it was ours from the beginning, before they convinced us we were too broken for it to be part of us any longer.

Harmonia and Kadmos —Kaysha Siemens
graphite on pergamenata paper, 5x7 inches.
Harmonia, goddess of harmony, was the daughter of Aphrodite and Ares. At her wedding to the mortal Kadmos (Cadmus), Harmonia was gifted a cursed necklace by the still-angered Hephaestus, a necklace which would be passed through her line and influence many an ill fate, from Semele to Aktaion (Actaeon) to Oedipus, among others. Harmonia and Kadmos nevertheless had a loving and fruitful marriage, but their lives together were cut short when one day they were transformed into serpents. Ovid’s Metamorphoses tells of how in his last moments, Kadmos embraced his weeping love first as man and then as serpent, and their coils twined together as she in turn met her matching fate.
