Portraits
Lana is a modern observer of the people and passing moments around, which she documents in her sketch books.
This series profiles both ordinary and extraordinary people, but never “normal” or “perfect” people that we are so constantly privy to via social media. We are surrounded by unnatural poses and shots that make a beautiful picture on social networks, but do not say anything about the person and don’t cause a genuine smile. Conversation, movement, expression and personality are the things that bring the picture to life. Her work is honest and relatable. A common theme she try to achieve with drawings is that of be yourself. Looseness and immediateness; energy or mood of a person is an ongoing interest.
