Abstract Portrait, Black-and-White Drawing, Charcoal

This abstract portrait of a man (creature) is a sculpture study with a not-so-glamorous or revealing title: “Head 1”:)

Like all sculpture studies, the main challenge is to extract life from stone and make this material more human. I always wish to give my subject as much character and personality as possible, and it’s always exciting.

“Head 1” is a charcoal portrait and a black-and-white drawing with a mystery. It heavily relies on a strong-willed, enigmatic subject who calmly gazes at the viewer.

My artist website has more information about this abstract portrait and my artistic path.

Here, on Art & Cupcakes, I also share my vibrant and colorful oil pastel drawing and a cute cat drawing that will inspire you for a better day 🐈

Thank you for checking out ❤️


Love,

Olya 💙 💛
