Charcoal Art Study | American Psycho Expressive Portrait

In this video, I create an American Psycho-inspired charcoal artwork, exploring dark, expressive mark-making and gestural portrait techniques. Using loose strokes and bold contrasts, this study captures the intensity and unsettling mood of the subject while pushing the boundaries of traditional portrait drawing. Perfect for artists and fans of experimental art, this piece highlights how charcoal can convey raw energy, atmosphere, and emotion. Whether you’re looking for charcoal portrait tutorials, gestural drawing inspiration, or expressive art techniques, this study demonstrates the power of working loosely and embracing imperfection to achieve striking, cinematic results.
