Exploring Nature's Beauty Through Graphite and Charcoal Drawings

It is what lies beneath the waters surface, a brewing storm, or the movement of shifting dunes is what is so mysterious about the natural landscape. My work as an artist is to offer an invitation to the viewer to catch a glimpse of what I am feeling and seeing at that time. Throughout my adventures to these places I am drawn to its vast expanse, you can almost feel its beating heart under your feet. So capturing this feeling can sometimes be very challenging. So I set traveling to these places searching for inspiration, taking photographs and making quick sketches remembering as much as possible. Being mindful of my surroundings taking as many mental notes as possible and studying it with the intensity it deserves.

GLIMPSE INSIDE THE STUDIO

In my artistic journey, I have adopted a unique approach to drawing that sets my work apart. Utilizing tools typically reserved for other purposes, I incorporate sandpaper to create texture that brings depth to my pieces. To craft atmospheric effects and clouds, I rely on erasers and graphite powder, allowing me to achieve a delicate balance. Color pencils offer the subtleties needed to convey the nuance of my subjects, while charcoal sticks and powder add significant structure and intensity. Liquid charcoal further enhances my drawings, contributing fluidity and richness to the overall composition. Finally, the precision of pencils ties together the various elements, ensuring a cohesive and captivating visual narrative in each artwork I create.
