More Charcoal… I’m on a roll.
This is another piece I did, based on the ArtTutor.com class “Studies in Charcoal” by Joann Boon Thomas. Same vine charcoal, and toned paper. This reference photo was one of the instructor’s based on a life drawing she did. I need to find a life drawing class myself, although with Covid, it might be an online/Zoom version.
ArtTutor.com class: Studies in Charcoal
With this art tutorial website going away in March, I’ve been making an effort to use my membership, and one of the online classes I did was Joann Boon Thomas’ “Studies in Charcoal”. This drawing was done on Strathmore toned paper, using medium vine charcoal (which is extremely forgiving — i.e., easy to erase with a kneaded eraser.) The reference photo was provided in class.
