GUARDED
One night, I attempted to sketch my mother. I worked on the drawing for a while, focusing mainly on her eyes. For some reason, I could not capture that sense of watchful isolation that shielded her vision. Hence, I practiced on Ms. Angel Aquino's portrait instead. I knew then that if I get this portrait "right", I would be able to draw my mother's portrait...and I did.
This is actually the "Genesis" of most of the pieces on my SHADOWS series- a compressed charcoal study on a 90gsm smooth paper.
