“Faeries, come take me out of this dull world,

For I would ride with you upon the wind,

Run on the top of the dishevelled tide,

And dance upon the mountains like a flame.”

― William Butler Yeats, The Land of Heart's Desire

That's my version of John Singer Sargent's portrait in charcoal of William Butler Yeats. Again I've used the 12 color-set from Rockwell Canada. They dry a bit pale, but the color range and the granulation is wonderful.
