Drawing in November

More charcoal drawing from the Saturday morning drawing group. Done on newsprint or charcoal paper. Loved every moment of it.

Charcoal portraits, end of October

These two portraits were done with charcoal pencils. Having drawn with vine charcoal during my art school life drawing class, these charcoal pencils are a little different. Still, they are easy to use and not messy. Once after class in art school, the instructor asked one of the students "How are things in the coal mine?" --- that's how messy vine charcoal can be.
