Diary of a Young Man captures a moment of intense self-awareness and quiet determination at the cusp of adulthood.

The composition, dominated by geometric shapes and strong contrasting light, reflects the ordered intensity of his inner world, emphasizing the disciplined effort required to transition from boy to man.

This painting speaks to the universal experience of navigating a confusing world while attempting to define oneself. It honors the introspective journey, capturing the dignity and the weight of making those first critical decisions that shape one’s destiny.
