Private Commission · Sweden
Only Wonder Boy is a commissioned portrait created for a private collector in Sweden.
The composition places the subject close to the viewer, framed by the dark folds of his hood. His direct gaze becomes the centre of the work, while the deep charcoal surrounding the face creates contrast against the softer graphite transitions of the skin.
Created over 18 hours using charcoal and graphite pencil, the portrait focuses on expression, texture and presence. The close composition gives the work an intimate quality, capturing not only physical likeness but the character and confidence carried in the subject's expression.
Created as a personal commission, this original belongs to a private collection in Sweden and is not available for sale or reproduction.
