Retreating into the Shadow

"Retreating into the Shadow" is a powerful charcoal drawing that vividly portrays the insidious onset and deepening progression of mental illness,, such as depression.  The stark figure, increasingly obscured and dissolving in the profound blackness, masterfully conveys the overwhelming sense of withdrawing from the world and slipping deeper into the encompassing darkness that defines a depressive state.  This high-contrast piece serves as a raw and honest visual echo of the soul's quiet descent.

Drawing is 9" H x 12" W and comes signed and with a Certificate of Authenticity.
