Charcoal | 50 x 35 cm | Framed
My intricate portraits depict the detail of faces and nature. My highly realistic, black- and-white style draws attention to light and shadow without the distraction of colour. My works are painted using finely ground charcoal and hand crafted brushes.Joanne
“I create with a method called ‘painting with charcoal’ using fine animal hair brushes I craft myself, plus charcoal powder, I can achieve a dramatic effect of contrasting light and shadow. I love using these ancient techniques to create realism, drama and depth in my works"
