"It would be embarrassing if we meet again." I enjoyed free-handing this one.

What was originally going to be a quick sketch for a larger project ended up being a rather detailed graphite work. I like how it looked as I was creating this so I kept it going.

"Loyalty and treachery is just a matter of perspective. Your shortsighted theory is meaningless. I only pursue the truth." I explored a lot of ideas while working on this. It was very interesting seeing each idea interact.

Taking the sketch a step further. Graphite portrait.

"You're asking me if I ever wonder what's out there? I spend too much time figuring out what's here in front of me."

"No one ever said the future would be easy. But I think we all saw the glimmer of a dream, somewhere in the sky that night"

"I am strength. I am courage. I am astute. Resilient. Virtuous. Loyal. But above all, I am me."

"Maceria is my homeland, my haven, my garden. I witnessed its growth alongside my own, and now it is my time to lead Maceria to new heights and be a beacon for all."

Working with different techniques!

Returning with new techniques and fresh ideas.

This was the first large study I did for this year, focusing on shapes. This was completed a few weeks ago, before the other studies with the same model.
