INSPIRATION
“Much like finding one’s way through the fog, this process behind my charcoal and pastel work has helped me navigate the inarticulate. Acknowledging suppressed emotions and the unclear path through them. Incredibly uncomfortable, yet peaceful. [...] Mental landscapes of my return to self and the restoration of abandoned dreams. A reminder that some of life’s most beautiful discoveries are made through moments of discomfort and difficulty. A reminder to embrace the unknown.”

A NOTE FROM LINSEY
For me, these pieces soften the edge of uncertainty, the creative process meditative and, at times, cathartic. Whether you purchase a piece or not, I hope seeing these works and hearing my story inspires hope in your own journey. Having the work in your home is a bonus. — Linsey

The Process
A lifelong fan of charcoal and chalk pastels, I’ve recently begun using them in a different way. Accuracy was always my approach in portraiture and figure drawing. Combine that with more than a decade of architectural drawing and rendering and the strive for precision becomes second nature. But now, rather than focusing so much on the end result, I’m learning to lean into the process itself by surrendering some of that control to the medium and the substrate.
After taping off desired margins, each piece receives several fine layers of ground chalk pastel applied with a wash brush and blended by a combination of hand, felt cloth, and paddle brush. Settling into the wood grain like a stain, this rich gradient grounds the composition, loosely blocked in with another layer of pan pastels. Slowly granting the medium more and more control, a series of impromptu, gestural marks made with vine and compressed charcoal dance their way in, lightly blended each layer to produce a soft, velvet haze reminiscent of the mountain fog that steadies my breath and quiets my mind.
