Willemien Bardawil Rosé Soirée, 2021 Watercolour and Ink on Paper Signed on verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Willemien is an artist based in London. She has formerly specialised in fashion which is translated through her use of colour and print. She is constantly inspired by the current world around her, yet consistently looks back to art of the past for influence. Her compositions and themes are often influenced by ancient Greek or Roman sculptures and Renaissance and Romantic periods. She reinterprets these classical forms in a playful and feminine way within the modern context of today, focusing on exploring the female form living her most joy. She works primarily in watercolour, ink and pastel to achieve her fluid style, however at times uses acrylic and oil on canvas for larger commissions. Formally she is trained in drawing by the Ruskin school of art in Oxford and Royal drawing school in London, but her very unique aesthetic is entirely self taught.
