David Bowie Monochrome (2025) (2025) Original Pencil Drawing by Paul Nelson-Esch

This is an original monochrome portrait of David Bowie, created with the intention of capturing a quieter, more introspective side of the legendary artist. Using a restrained palette and expressive linework, I aimed to convey Bowie’s depth, charisma, and timeless presence.

Drawn by hand on Fabriano cartridge paper using pencil, pen, and ink, this piece offers a minimalist yet emotive take—letting subtle detail and tonal contrast evoke the artist’s enigmatic charm.
