Margo’s
Portfolio
I’m Margarita Andrusenko, an aspiring international artist. I specialize in both traditional and digital art.
Art is a big part of who I am, and I want to inspire many more people just like me with visual storytelling through animation.
Head & Neck
This is a study of the human head, in which we can observe it’s raw shape, it’s different planes, elements and muscles.
The Psyche Mirror
This work is a study of one of Berthe Morisot’s paintings, “The Psyche Mirror”. Although I made this with watercolors instead of oil paints, I think I learned a lot with this study. Morisot is a French impressionist artist that I admire, especially because of the delicate way she paints all her subjects. She mostly […]
Rockstar Girl
This piece was made during a trip to Holland. I experimented with a new rendering technique I learned which consists in roughly blocking in the shadows and setting them to multiply, and then adding in the colour, texture and final touches. I used a reference I found on pinterest of a static pose in which […]
Satyre et Bacchante
I drew this as a spur of the moment when I saw this beautiful sculpture. Satyre, a creature that’s half human, half goat, holds a bacchante, a nymph linked to the cult of Dionysus. I found this sculpture extremely interesting by the way the light fell on them and accentuated their beautiful curves. I used […]
Borne de Isabel II
This was one of my favourite exhibits at the Royal Collection Gallery in Madrid. It’s called “Borne de Isabel II” or “Diván circular” (circular couch). I tried to keep the process simple but at the same time giving the illusion of detail.
Black & White vs Colour
I made these drawings as an exam at school, in which we had to make two drawings, one in black and white, and another in colour. The first one is done with a black pen and some help of a black marker for the darkest parts, while in the second piece I mixed alcohol markers […]
The Vase and the Apple
This is another one of my light and dark shadow studies I did. For this piece I challenged myself to see how much I could do within a certain time limit but at the same time maintaining the quality to the maximum. In most of my drawings I often find the most enjoyable part to […]
Leopard
This is one of my most recent works, which I drew after being inspired by one of my favourite artists, Aaron Blaise. I chose to draw a leopard because I find big cats mysterious and peaceful at the same time. Elegant and deadly. Through this piece I tried to convey a sense of serenity and […]
Rose Garden
Texture in this painting is key. In this piece I used, for the first time, a painting knife. I found it very entertaining to use. The smooth way it laid out the paint on the canvas, the unique straight and textured lines it made, and the way different colours mixed… simply having it as new […]
