Artist Bio

About Me/Bio

I’m a portrait and realism artist who works mainly with pencil and charcoal, with the occasional dive into monochrome watercolor when a piece calls for a softer, moodier touch. Faces are my favourite terrain — the light, the shadows, the texture, the tiny truths sitting in every expression. I’m still building my craft, still pushing myself to understand more about form, depth, emotion, and the subtle details that bring a drawing to life. I’m here to learn, grow, and keep refining the kind of realism that doesn’t just look like someone, but feels like them. Every piece teaches me something new, and that’s exactly why I’m here: to keep evolving, to be challenged, and to connect with artists who love portrait work as much as I do. If it has soul, I want to draw it — and I’m excited to keep leveling up one piece at a time.
