This is the result of my first attempt at making my own charcoal to draw with and I couldn't be happier.

I’m looking forward to practicing with this medium more, I used to love it but I haven’t done anything with it in years.

Good work. You really nailed the softer shaded areas. You must be very patient to fill out a whole scene like this in detail.

Very satisfying to look at. Makes me want to hunt down my own charcoal sticks and take a jab at some mark making…

Thank you! I think this piece took me like four hours. And definitely give it a go! I forgot how much fun it is to work with
