She studies the theory so that she can
connect it with her art work. She wants to

her drawings.
specializes in the use of colored
pencils, graphite as well as oil
colors. She makes use of her
specialization in the areas of
hyperrealism, photorealism along
with realism in general. Hyperrealism
is a genre of painting that resembles
a high resolution photograph. It is
considered to be a higher form or
an advancement of photorealism
i.e. a genre of art; in which artist
tries to reproduce a photograph is
most realistic manner possible in
another medium. This aspect of art
encompasses or binds in paintings,
drawings and other graphic forms
of media. The compelling aspect is
the fact that Ms Mardesic is a selftaught
artist; she had learnt all of
the higher and advanced forms of
art by her hard work and dedication.
She has been drawing since her
childhood years. However, she took
art on a serious note and decided to
build her career on this about three
years ago. Then, she developed her
style and approach, which is drawing
old streets, houses and stones
in a photorealistic manner. This
young and accomplished artist had
three solo exhibitions at the age of
seventeen.
Over the course of the pandemic,
she made use of her free time to
enhance her skills. She believes
that art is everywhere and it makes
the world so much more beautiful.
Being an art history student herself,
she also believes that theory is
as important as the practical. She
studies the theory so that she can
connect it with her art work. She
wants to reflect whatever she has
learned through her drawings.
Her sole message to all the
artists around the world is, “Be you,
strive for greatness and do a lot of
practice!” Indeed, practice is the
way to achieve greatness.
