The Beauty Of Single Life In Great Illustrations

Idalia Candelas draws women who are content to be alone. Using pencil, ink, and watercolor, “Postmodern Loneliness” is a series that celebrates being single. An artist was inspired by her time living alone in Mexico City.

“The theme of the loneliness has been recurring in my drawings,” Candelas told. “I like to show women who exist in solitude but do not suffer. They are not depressed or crying. Rather they are safe, exalting in the sense of enjoying the company of just herself.”
