About the Item

Lovers Draw – Jolanta Johnsson, experienced Polish artist, graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, PhD of fine arts, university teacher. She currently lives in Sweden. This is how she writes about this drawing: Lovers draw – how to do it? Should it be a romantic illustration? The title of the lovers sketch drawing is - Lovers. You could say that the title is trite. I can agree with that. I think there is a more banal word than love. It is a word that is repeated by many, on many occasions. There is something in it, something that makes us repeat and recall it again and again. That something - is our desire to experience love. It is said that experiencing love gives a sense of fullness in life. We also desire for our love to be reciprocated, for us to be loved. For the other person to find the object of love in me. It seems complicated. Maybe even impossible? Fortunately, love is not rational, it is independent of reason. It appears unexpectedly. In moments of mutual closeness, lovers are transported to another world, another planet of their own. Each time, this journey is unique, unlike that of other couples. There are no identical loves, each is different. So every time, while drawing lovers i do it in another way. One can try to draw or paint them – create the lovers artwork. Endless series of paintings would be created. For now, there is lovers black and white drawing - the Lovers drawing romantic. But the question – How to make lovers illustration – stays open. Meanwhile, in reality, the one outside the lovers draw, the lovers stay together and create their lovers artwork of their life. In life, things are not always portrayed as a romantic illustration of a relationship. However, what remains true is the inherent need to experience love and closeness with another human being.
