Sophie Pasheva

Featured Artist

Hi! My name is Sophie. In my art, I really like to mix various techniques and materials. Soul, heart, mythology - The three pillars of my creativity. My inspiration will always be the people, their unique faces, their personalities. Portraiture is something extremely intimate, because only an artist can draw you as you feel yourself. Even the reflection in the mirror won’t be as honest with you as an artist.

Many may now call traditional drawing techniques and academic drawing itself something archaic, going far back in time. But I am sincerely convinced that it is the mastery of the pencil that shows the real talent of the artist. This is also the value that I try to maintain in my style, which is both tranquil and existential at the same time.

What was in the box?

Derwent Precision Mechanical Pencil

This Derwent Precision Mechanical Pencil is a light weight pencil, designed with ultimate comfort in mind for sketching. This pencil has an excellent grip and balance for even the most fine lined drawing. It features a premium full metal body which has been rigorously tested to ensure the highest tensile strength. It has a pocket safe retractable nib with a strong point for extended use and minimal breaking.

Koh-I-Noor Clutch Leadholder

Click to release, but don’t let the lead fly out. This clutch pencil from Koh-I-Noor comes complete with a 4B lead in a 5.6mm thickness. It offers the convenience of a mechanical pencil but, because it takes thicker leads, it allows for more expressive drawing.

Koh-I-Noor Jumbo Graphite Stick

Koh-I-Noor Graphite blocks have been long-term favourites amongst many artists for their convenience and versatility. This Graphite stick is in a 6B making it great for creating bold, dramatic sketches and atmospheric line drawings. Sharpen like a normal pencil for detail work, or use the edges or blunt points for shading and broad, expressive work.

Derwent Pastel Pencils

Unlike conventional pastels, these Derwent Pastel Pencils are presented in a smooth round wooden case for maximum control of use -not to mention less messy-but they still deliver the velvety smooth finish of a top quality traditional pastel! These pastels layer and blend beautifully making them deal for shading and colour mixing allowing you to confidently add tone and definition to your work.
