According to Charles, most time there are things that are best communicated through our expressions, that is why he likes to paint his subject looking directly at the viewers so as to create a direct connection with the viewers. His works are mostly spontaneous with loose effect achieved with squeegees, brushes and palette knifes. Most times his approach are by random accident which includes drippings, paint throws and splashing of paint on canvas which leaves him in a space of making do with what he have to protrude his image so the viewers can enjoy the physicality of the painting.
