Black-and-white self-portrait of a masked figure standing beneath a DART bus stop sign in Dallas, Texas. The subject wears glasses, a beanie, and a hoodie, gazing slightly upward. Power lines and trees frame the urban backdrop, evoking solitude and quiet vigilance.

Waiting, masked, marked. The geometry of transit and surveillanceโ€”where stillness becomes resistance. Shot on #leicaq2 in Dallas. #selfportrait #DallasArt #urbanstillness #EmotionalAngularism #blackandwhitephotography #Savvye

"Four Trees" by Egon Schiele captures a dramatic autumnal landscape with vibrant hues of orange, red, and purple under a striking sunset sky. The composition reflects Schieleโ€™s signature style with its expressive color palette and linear forms, conveying both the beauty and underlying tension of nature.

Egon Schiele's "Krumau Town Crescent I" captures the tightly packed rooftops and twisting streets of ฤŒeskรฝ Krumlov with bold outlines and vibrant ochre and earthy tones. The painting reflects Schieleโ€™s fascination with the townโ€™s medieval architecture and conveys a sense of distorted yet intimate urban life.

Egon Schiele's "Two Little Girls" features a delicate watercolor portrayal of two young girls exuding both innocence and introspection, characteristic of Schiele's exploration of human emotion and expression. The artist's distinct use of line and color highlights the figures' ethereal presence against a minimalist background, embodying Schiele's unique expressionist style.

This artwork by Egon Schiele features an intriguing self-portrait characterized by his distinctive angular style and expressive use of color, particularly in the prominent orange and gray cloak enveloping the figure. The piece reflects Schiele's fascination with psychological and emotional depth, typical of the Austrian Expressionist movement.

Mixed media self-portrait showing a Black man with one hand partially covering their face, fingers spread to reveal one eye while obscuring the other. He wears a geometric yellow beanie crown and blue garment with visible watch. Behind the figure, jagged orange and red shapes suggesting both autumn leaves and flames create a turbulent background. The work uses visible pencil and pastel strokes in an expressionist style, with asymmetrical features and intense gaze conveying emotional complexity. Part of the Emotional Angularism movement using geometric constraint to map internal states.

The Burning Time, 2025. Emotional Angularism study where autumn performs its annual fury. When natural cycles mirror internal combustionโ€”leaves as flames, crowns as burden, vision fractured through protective gesture. #EmotionalAngularism #OutsiderArt #AbstractPortraiture #PoliticalArt

The portrait uses bold color notationโ€”blue extending from head area, yellow for skin tone, against neutral background. Charcoal, soft pastels, and fineliner on watercolor paper. Reference photograph visible beneath shows same pose. Art supplies scattered around workspace. Signed "S 2025" lower right.

Working Rage, 2925
Study, Emotional Angularism. Charcoal, soft pastels, Stabilo 88 fineliners, and pencil on Arches cold-pressed watercolor paper. The yellow notation carries decades of navigation between "not enough" and "too much"โ€”a chromatic reclamation in preparation for larger EA paintings.

Colored pencil and pastel self-portrait study of a Black man with glasses and graying, blue beard, his right hand covering most of his face in a defensive or contemplative gesture. His watch is visible on the raised wrist. The drawing emphasizes emotional weight through the protective hand position against warm paper tone. This portrait is an early example of Emotional Angularism.

Study complete. When the weight becomes gesture, and gesture becomes form. โ€”Savvye

In-progress abstract self-portrait on white paper showing a Black man with angular, geometric features. Bold yellow covers the head area like a crown or protective covering. Intense blue and black defines the beard area. Eyes are wide and penetrating, rendered in stark contrasts. The style uses sharp angles and bold color zones rather than realistic curves. A reference photograph is visible to the right showing the artist making a dramatic expression. Oil pastel or crayon on paper, approximately 18x24 inches. Work by Savvye exploring Emotional Angularism."

Emotional Angularism sketch translating a photograph of a young Black man with vitiligo into geometric notation. Sharp angular lines define facial structure while maintaining the subject's distinct skin pigmentation patterns. Blue shirt and red pants rendered in bold zones. The vitiligo is integrated into the composition's angular language rather than hidden, making visible difference part of the structural emotion. Spiral sketchpad, mixed media.

I've always seen beauty in those who are often overlooked by our "typical" compatriots. I will draw this young man more formally soon.

Self-portrait drawing by Savvye placed beside Ansel Adams' Zone System chart (0-255 grayscale values). The juxtaposition illustrates Emotional Angularism's revolutionary concept: translating Adams' systematic tonal zones into a color-based emotional notation system, where specific hues map to emotional temperatures with photographic precision.

A dramatic charcoal self-portrait study on paper showing a close-up face with angular geometric shading. Red accents highlight the eyes and lips, which feature bold black vertical lines. The sculptural treatment uses strong diagonal shadows to create an intense, mask-like quality that transforms emotion into architectural form.

Emotional Angularism study on paper. Working through the fundamentals of mapping feeling to angleโ€”how geometry can carry identity and expression. The red zones mark emotional temperature while charcoal builds the structural vocabulary. Each line is a decision about what to reveal and contain.
