Burdened Courage


In this stark, monochromatic drawing, the face of a lone soldier emerges from the darkness, his worn features and downcast gaze conveying a powerful message of silent endurance. Each etched line captures the weight of unseen battles and the fatigue of lingering memories. At the same time, his rough, scarred helmet mirrors the rugged contours of his face—a testament to resilience forged through hardship. Isolated in the void, he stands as a solemn tribute to the burdened courage that often goes unnoticed, embodying the quiet strength of those who carry the weight of war without words or glory.

Endure Agony

The drawing “Endure Agony” captures the haunting agony of a war victim. The gaunt figure and hollow eyes convey deep physical and emotional suffering. The frail and hunched body appears to be clutching at itself as if trying to contain unbearable pain. Jagged lines emphasize the torment, with the face frozen in a silent scream and sunken eyes reflecting fear and helplessness.

The monochromatic tones amplify the sense of despair and isolation, drawing the viewer into the victim’s irreversible trauma and the profound human cost of war.
