Croquis – Justyna Starostka

Fornemmer følelserne

Croquis in French means ‘a sketch’. It is a quick and sketchy drawing of a live model. Model is changing poses very often; poses are from 10 seconds (yes, 10 seconds!) up to 4/5 minutes.

To me, my croquis drawings are a form of a personal freedom. I grew up in a culture where nudity was something to be avoided; something shameful and sinful. I was liberated from it with art. My drawings represent the vulnerability, courage and beauty of each and every one of us.

Croquis is not about representing reality, but sensing and expressing feelings, movement, lines, sensuality..

21 days of femininity

In March 2021 I created a „21 days of Femininity” project on my Instagram, using a hashtag #21daysoffemininity . I created 21 different artworks connected with the topic of femininity. In this project I wanted to celebrate vulnerability, courage and beauty of each and every one of us.

To me, my art is a form of personal liberation. I grew up in Poland in a culture where nudity was something to be avoided; something shameful and sinful. My art freed me from this belief.

All the artworks are already sold, but I offer high quality prints of selected artworks.

Prices for high quality prints:

Size A4 – 300 dkk,

Size A3 – 400 dkk.

Prints are made on 100% cotton, Hahnemühle paper in a very high quality. Each print is in limited collection and signed by me. I print my artworks myself on a professional printer I invested in, so I check quality of each print.

You can also order a commission of an original piece in soft pastels. Prices can vary depending on the number of pieces ordered and sizes (can be up to 50×70 cm). Prices: from 800 – 1000 dkk a piece.
