Since I have been talking about charcoal as a medium lately, or maybe even thinking about it more than actually talking, I thought of showing the last charcoal drawing I did.
I think it was at the end of last year that I had this commission. So roughly half a year. That is a pretty long time, especially in art. I changed it with graphite because my how to draw videos are also made with graphite.
I think I have enough charcoal pencils for a new drawing, even without the need to go and buy them, because actually it is not very easy to buy a good quality charcoal pencils. I have already burned myself with this. I tried buying it locally and also purchasing from the internet. Every way got me in trouble. Now there were times when everything was good, but some were really painful.

The problem was that they were too old. So that when I pushed harder and wanted to sharpen them, they broke. Slightly touched and they broke. And I can not practically draw with those, because charcoal itself is sooooo hard to sharpen, and if he pencils are in such a bad quality, then it is impossible. Those pencils I just had to get away and maybe use for background blending, but nothing more.
But I still have a set of really good ones, so that all I need now s a little bit f time and ideas I have, so I might start a new charcoal work very soon.
