charcoal drawing on paper
Original artwork description
Water clings to skin. Hair plasters against cheek and jaw. A single eye holds the frame — steady, unbroken — while everything around it surrenders to the elements. Surface Tension is a hyperrealistic charcoal portrait that turns the surface of the human face into a landscape of light and water. Each droplet is rendered individually, catching and scattering what little light remains in an otherwise dark, immersive composition.
The technical challenge here is inseparable from the emotional one: to draw water on skin with charcoal is to work against the mediums nature — and that friction is precisely the point. This is a portrait about endurance. About what holds when everything is wet, heavy, and pulling down.
