“Art is my life.” That’s how artist Zulf describes his relationship with art. The London-based artist creates masterpieces on dark paper using only pastel pencils and charcoal. He plays around with light, shadows, and silhouettes to bring portraits of women to life with flair and drama.
“I take my time to find what I feel is the perfect reference for what I need. Sometimes, it can take me hours just to find one. Each piece I create can take me anywhere between 1 to 60 hours depending on details, although I try to keep it minimal as possible,” Zulf revealed to Bored Panda what his workflow’s like and how much time and effort goes into each and every art piece that he does.
