The Work

Medium & Method

✏️

Graphite

Fine-grain graphite on archival paper, capturing texture, shadow, and the quiet weight of a subject's presence.

🎨

Watercolor

Layered washes that breathe — luminous, translucent, alive with color even in restraint.

🖍️

Colored Pencil

Meticulous burnishing and layering to build rich skin tones and vibrant detail impossible in other media.
