Description: Charcoal on paper
Artist Statement: This piece took a lot of time, redoing, erasing, and stepping back as I wiped my forehead and made another charcoal stain appear, but I finally finished it with my hands covered in charcoal, my hair up in a messy bun, and feeling proud of what I created.
