When I met him, we connected over a shared language; his father had been an artist, and there was a genuine spark of excitement in him at the idea of being the subject of a portrait. This piece is about that contrast: the struggle of the plastic-bag shoes against the pride of a man who understands the value of an image. Captured in charcoal and chalk, focusing on the authenticity of a life lived without the extra gear.

Paper Quality: Professional Hot Press Bright 300 gsm smooth matte 16 mil 100% cotton rag.
