DRAWINGS

This series of graphite drawings captures men in quiet, often tender moments — pausing, reflecting, and letting themselves be seen.

The subjects presented here aren't posed to impress or to generate an illusion of brutish strength. There's no performance here. Instead, this collection focuses on a kind of masculinity rarely showcased in today’s media landscape: emotional openness. These men each display an willingness to hold your gaze and maybe even let you in.

There’s a sense of longing in many of these works — not for spectacle, but for connection. These figures feel lived-in, real, and deeply human. You can imagine them loving fiercely, thinking deeply, hurting quietly. These men are not comic book characters. They're whole people.

Look closely, and notice what you feel. That feeling is the point.
