I was attracted to Lempicka's work 'Eden' by the sculptural feel to the painting and the very striking composition. My aim was not to copy the original, but to use a different medium (charcoal/ chalk) to add a dynamic element. Many of Lempicka's paintings are, like Eden, highly sensual and suggest she was not bound by the conventions of the time. (Elise Gibbons)
