About Charcoal & Pencil Portraits

Working with charcoal is messy, but that is exactly how we get those deep, rich blacks and smooth transitions. I teach my students to see light and shadow before they even touch their pencil to paper, which makes all the difference when you are trying to capture a realistic expression or a specific look in someone's eyes.
