Although charcoal drawing won't be my primary medium, I chose to utilize this type of approach for this prompt since these are the types of works that inspired me the most. As you can see, the artisans combined scribbling technique with charcoal to create their masterpieces.

I adore semi-realistic paintings that also incorporate abstract or emotionally charged themes to convey a message to the audience.

< BRAINSTORMING >

Not my most favorite part, but the gods have showered me with brain energy (joke intended). Actually, I thought this concept was rather widespread, because as we all know identity can be really confusing and complex in human psychology. I wanted it to be more precise and avoid being too ambiguous because it could be taken in an unrealistic way. I wanted something that can be interpreted through looking at human expressions.

I wanted to use charcoal but guess what? I ran out of luck!

But the end result would always satisfy me, regardless of the materials used.

The methods I used are the shading and scribble techniques.
