Monochrome

Everything here stays within a single tone, built from bold black strokes, dense charcoal fields, and quiet grays rather than color. Line and shadow carry the weight, from stark gestural marks to still, meditative blocks of tone. Shades of a single color keep the room cohesive and calm, and these pieces suit a living room or a moody den.
