Changing my habit: portrait drawing in charcoal.
As I mentioned earlier we get together every week to work from life. We ask people in the neighborhood to model. There will come a day when we shall have “done” half the village. This time I decided to work in charcoal and not in oils. I haven´t done this for ages and once again I’m surprised how much I enjoy this. (1,5 hour session)
I used Winsor & Newton Artist’s charcoal, thin and medium, Fabriano drawing paper 120g / m2 – 24 x 32 cm, Faber-Castell Art Eraser (kneaded rubber eraser) and some brushes for blending.
