| Description |
| This beautiful graphite drawing of Ginger Rogers is part of a new series of famous women by artist Joanna Ladowska.
Born in Lublin, Poland, Ladowska’s introduction to art came from her godmother and mother. From an early age, the young Ladowska concealed many of her works from her parents.
Instead, many early works were published in children’s magazines.
Although introduced to the worlds of graphics, design, analogue and digital photography, Ladowska’s passion remained in the medium of pencil, particularly the human face.
Her technique of pencilled graphite work which is applied to canvas in stunning detail and proportionality is unique.
After receiving a scholarship from the polish Prime Minister and the Mayor of the city of Lublin, Ladowska’s breakthrough came in 2010, when she was granted her first solo exhibition in Leczna. Ladowska declined a place at the prestigious University of Fine Arts in Poznan, making the decision to leave Poland for England. Having received much acclaim in the critical art press, Ladowska recently won the People’s Choice Art Award for 2011. Her work is now being exposed to a new and very appreciative client base.
