Original artwork description:

This charcoal drawing captures a serene yet powerful profile of a young woman gazing thoughtfully into the distance. The artist employs rich, smooth gradients to model the contours of her face and neck, creating a striking contrast between light and shadow. Delicate strands of hair softly escape an otherwise tidy bun, adding a touch of informality and life. The minimal background emphasizes the subject’s quiet strength and introspective presence. The refined shading around the eyes and cheekbones draws the viewer’s focus to her calm, contemplative expression.
