i like drawing with charcoal
it can be slow as well as fast
it can be used in powder form, dry stick and compressed which is dense and dark.
for figure drawing i like bob's fine vine charcoal
This site features my artset 4 drawings plus my figure drawings/life drawings rendered with Bob's Fine Vine Charcoal on bristol vellum paper. ATTENTION: Blogger AND Google may use cookies . Life drawing Norm Rosenberger does not use cookie collectors.
draw large, you can see and understand the figure better . Charcoal and newsprint or butcherpaper are the best and most affordable tools to get you started . a 19"x24" pad of paper is a comfortable drawing size to explore. Draw for three hours a few times a week. attend a figure drawing session to challenge yourself.
learn about the world with each drawing.
Have fun! Norm
