Artem Krepkij III

Artem Krepkij's sketchbooks are a wonderful glimpse into other lives caught moments of everyday life made exceptional by the fact that Artem has turned hand to capture them. Creating an amazing documentary of his life and times.

Love the expressive gesturing hands in this sketch by Artem Krepkij and the use of perspective he has caught a moment in a discussion perfectly. 

Artem Krepkij I

I am teaching life drawing and basic drawing skills at this time of year and so my eye is being tempted by drawings. 

Artem Krepkij's drawings are difficult to view in some ways due to their extreme perspective, twisting and contorting figures into exaggerated forms to emphasize the emotion and drama of situations. His works remind me of those early works of Vincent Van Gogh where the hands are as expressive and animated as the faces and there is a monotone hardship that prevails through all.
