Classic Portrait

Description

This charcoal portrait presents a young man with a contemplative expression, rendered in subtle shades of black and gray. The delicate shading emphasizes the texture of his hair and the crisp lines of his suit and tie. The simplicity of the composition directs focus to the subject’s calm demeanor, making it a refined addition to any setting.

Artist

I create charcoal and pencil drawings that explore quiet intensity and raw emotion through contemplative figures, haunting portraits, and textured still lifes. My work reveals the beauty in unfinished edges and invites reflection on depth and form.
