- The weight of time
Original artwork description
“The Weight of Time” is a charcoal portrait that captures more than a likeness—it holds a life lived. Rendered with expressive strokes and subtle tonal shifts, this piece invites the viewer into a quiet, contemplative moment with its subject. The face is softened by the passage of time, yet the gaze remains alert, playful, and knowing.
The sweeping textures suggest wind or memory, blurring the boundaries between presence and absence. This drawing balances technical control with emotional spontaneity, drawing from both classical portraiture and modern expression.
