Originals in this selection, Expressive and gestural, Material Charcoal, 1,000 to 2,000 euro.
Formats from 80 x 60 to 100 x 100 cm.
The arm as a tool
Expressive, gestural charcoal painting shows the body behind the line: speed, pressure and resolve. Paintings in the expressive and gestural style with charcoal from 1,000 to 2,000 euro are for sale here.
At large formats the charcoal is driven by the whole arm. The lines are broad, frayed, sometimes broken off. Between the strokes the white of the ground remains and feels like a pause for breath. Where acrylic joins, it sets strong counterweights.

Looking at 1,000 to 2,000 euro
For originals at this level, size and support deserve a look: canvas, board or mounted paper. How the charcoal was secured also belongs in the description. It decides how well a picture tolerates touch.
Room for big gestures
Such pictures need distance. A room with a high wall, a stairwell or a living room with free space lets them work. A black or white wood frame recedes and lets the gesture speak for itself.
