About this work:

Paintings and Drawings
Soft pastel
30" x 40"

This is a collage of thoughts of a special girl; she believes that she is one of undiscovered yet grandchildren of Elisabeth, the last Queen of England (after her death started a kingship of Great Britain). From history we know that for political reason the Queen never was married. Beyond of her craft in politics, she was known for her weakness toward men (just like her father, the Tudor). As a result about five Elisabeth's children were secretly adapted by close royal families. Lately historians start talk about descendants of the Queen. My Elisabeth is one of them.

This work is different from my others in a way of applying the media. I was creating some kind of net with pastel pencils' strocks following the idea to put first dark value colors, than slowly build up with tints to desirable level. This technique gives the effect of dimension and, also, the effect of translucency that creates, in turn, a dreamy, unclear, uncertain mood. Also many subjects placed in unusual position, just like our thoughts don’t have the gravity. As you remember the painting is about girl’s personal thoughts and they are not proved yet.
