Hats and Head Covering Charcoal Portraits

00-Charcoal-Portraits-Kisoo-Chai-www-designstack-co

A collection of charcoal portraits, brought together by hats and other head coverings.

Kisoo Chai is the artist whom drew the pictures contained on this page.

Not all drawings Chai's creates include some sort of head apparel. There are enough of them though, to fill this post. If you look at the LINK below, you will be able to see many other examples of hat free art.

I like this artist's signature piece on the drawings. The stray lines emanating and adorning the subject. They add a sense of randomness which is balanced by the meticulous detailing of the features and expressions of the models.

Another real cool aspect is how some of the portraits have bands, in which the artist has increased or decreased the amount of detailing. They are usually concentrated on the facial features and diminished as you venture outwards from this centre. This is a fantastic tool to focus your attention, to the parts the artist wants you to rest your eyes onto.

Now a chance to see my thoughts reflected on these portraits and decide whether you agree with them or not.

Ps. I gave the images some titles.
