"Discover" is a self-portrait holding a candle in the dark. The candle's smalllight stands for the limited certainty I feel: it doesn't fill the whole space, just a few inches around me. I drew it in charcoal on purpose: using only value and edge, with no color to rely on, mirrors how I search for clarity withouteasy answers. For me, this piece is about searching without guarantees. I don't see the answer, but I keep looking anyway.
