Have you ever done any work where Charcoal was used as the medium?

Art Charcoal

Charcoal is my preferred medium for drawing, either that or nupastels (soft pastels). Especially drawing people. But I definitely prefer charcoal pencils to sticks or vine. And I love the chamois lift-out technique, when working on white paper. The reason that I like charcoal and nupastel is that it is so easy to use - you get nice lines, it blends well, and it is easy to erase with the chamois. And I just like the look of it. Maybe I will see if I can get some pics of charcoal head exercises from the class I took.

I love charcoal art. I took an art class for a year and we we taught first with charcoal.
It is very easy to do and you are able to blend colours easily. Also if you are a beginner in art it teaches you to draw and to learn how to use colour.
