SPARTANS

Spartans and lions

I wanted to create a power painting. Something that gives positive energy to the viewer. So i combine two symbols of power: spartans and lions.

The best way is to face death with strength and power, like the "wild" heroes of old.
if you can't avoid dying, it's better to go down fighting than to not fight at all!

About

It is important to express oneself… provided the feelings are real and are taken from your own experience…
Shadow is the means by which bodies display their form. The forms of bodies could not be understood in detail but for shadow.

I don't think you decide to be an artist one day. I think if you have the artist in yourself it will come out. I started drawing when I was 6 years old, I took a pen and started to draw anything, and I continued to do so for the years that came. But for many years, the truth is, I didn't do any oil paintings, I just did hand drawings and studied interior architecture. And all my life I was attracted to paintings, visited museums, and eventually I decided to try to paint. Somehow everything I learned regarding to drawing and architecture helped me to become a painter.

I had to combine the carriage and somehow draw it like it being pulled by lions and I had to draw the perspective right, and somehow place the spartans on the carriage as well, so it was a lot of drawing and testing so I can get the perspective right. I wanted the carriage to move towards the viewer but also a little semi profile. It was challenging .
