A search through our various stashes, piles, and catacombs reveals many timeworn tokens of our artistic pasts. Some are pretty good, some are agonizingly bad, and some are just plain freaky! Still, we can't help but find amusement in their exhumation.
Ah, charcoal, one of my old favorites. Many episodes of teenage despair were focused and sent flowing out through hand and blackened willow branch onto paper with expressive relief.
It’s a medium that quite befits my fleeting inspirations, as you cannot walk away from an unfinished piece for long or it will fade out and probably get smudged all to hell.
Of course, every teen needs to adorn their walls with posters and photos of their favorite artists/actors/musicians. Charcoal allowed me to create my own representations, and this is one of them.
