Original artwork description:

This drawing is a portrait, exuding both boldness and vulnerability. The sharp, angular hairstyle creates a sense of defiance and individuality, while the downward gaze and relaxed expression add an element of introspection. The high-contrast shading emphasizes the contours of the face, neck, and collarbones, drawing attention to the subject's strong yet delicate features. The monochromatic palette enhances the raw and emotional tone, suggesting a narrative of resilience or self-discovery.

The dynamic texture of the charcoal strokes gives the artwork an organic, spontaneous quality, making it feel alive and expressive. It conveys a balance between chaos and control, much like a snapshot of inner transformation.
