Charcoal on Paper. Artist's Statement: The title came from the Philippine Telenovela that in turn was inspired by Norse Mythology. The series was the Filipino version of the American film Thor. This was my first time using charcoal. Human emotions inspire me to create artworks that can secretly communicate. Emotions are better than words. Humanity is amazing and that is why I like secrets and codes because the mind can create an infinite number of different stories that give an artwork its value.
