Artist Carolina Lebar
Creating highly detailed illustrations, her semeiotic work explores nature’s unintentional influence on humanity’s past civilizations and the subsequent creation of mythologies, beliefs, and lore. From this grows her quiet soliloquy that evokes a natural empathy by virtue of viewing the juxtaposition between humanity’s past fears with modern angst.
The pieces I create echo beliefs and lore and explore their human connections to nature. A new human connection is formed by tying past and present within a gathering of feather, fur, fins, symbolism, and feminine beauty.
Technique
After intense research and composition sketches, the delicate artwork begins with pencil, creating fine, beautiful details. Layers of pencil and graphite then create depth in the illustration. Sometimes the addition of acrylic paint or oil paint then completes her vision.
