Charcoal on tea-stained wood panel
This piece was inspired by the story of The Kidsgrove Boggart. Legend has it the Boggart is the spirit of a woman who was killed and beheaded by boatmen as she travelled to London through the Harecastle tunnel. I created this portrait with the aim to give form to this lady. I applied the charcoal with brushes to give the Boggart a transparent and ghostly look.
