Portrait-Badu

I feel like doing charcoal paintings forever now. I find it funny how I was in a rut for a while to the point where I thought I lost my passion. In fact I felt like I was going insane and lost my identity. Guess I was just bored with acrylics...I really feel so much better about myself now. It's an amazing feeling...

"Attitude"-portrait

I started getting bored with acrylic paint so I decided to rekindle my relationship with my first love, charcoal. I haven't used charcoals in 3 years and I missed its versatility. I have a lot more to learn with charcoal thus I will be exploring with the messy black powder for awhile...
