Original artwork description:

This is an original pencil portrait of Mark Twain — the great American author known for his wit, wisdom, and unforgettable characters.

I set out to capture Twain’s presence through a minimalist approach, focusing on his unmistakable features: the wild hair, the thoughtful gaze, and of course, that iconic moustache. It’s a quiet tribute to a loud voice in American literature, where every line aims to reflect both the humour and depth Twain brought to the world.

Artwork Details:
• Medium: Pencil on Fabriano cartridge paper
• Size: A4 – 30 x 21 cm / 11.75" x 8.25" approx.
• Finish: Satin varnish
• Signature: Signed and dated by the artist
• Certificate of Authenticity included
