Pencil Artist of the Week: Sandrine Sakkalis

This week’s featured artist is Sandrine Sakkalis, a pencil artist living in Brussels, Belgium who creates graphite, wax and water color pencil drawings. Sandrine describes her style as “set between surreal and fantasy,” and her subjects range from celebrities to characters and creatures of her own creation.

Sandrine draws to “bring emotions, smiles, tears” to the surface. She works as a psychiatric nurse, a profession that allows her to meet a variety of different people. These interactions inspire her work, as does the human condition in general. She works with graphite pencils, Paper Mate and Bic pens, and Stabilo color pencils and watercolors.
