Contemplation in Shadow - Original Charcoal drawing

This emotive 11" x 15" charcoal portrait was created from life in my studio, capturing a moment of quiet introspection. Working directly with my subject allowed me to render the nuanced expressions and delicate interplay of light and shadow that brings this portrait to life. The loose, confident strokes around the edges contrast with the careful detail work in the face, creating a sense of emergence from the blank page. This original artwork on paper showcases the expressive potential of charcoal as a medium, with its rich blacks and subtle gradations of tone. Each mark is deliberate yet spontaneous, reflecting my commitment to capturing not just a likeness, but the essence of a fleeting emotional state.
