Charcoal Painting Workshop


Charcoal is a drawing technique that employs an implement of charred wood. Charcoal drawings are a great way for any artist to practice gesture and how to zero in on big shapes without getting bogged down in detail. A charcoal artist is able to create great levels of gradation by merely varying the pressure of his or her fingers, and simply turning or rotating the implement can create a whole new kind of stroke on the surface of a work. As with many drawing media, charcoal responds strongly to the grain of the paper it is used on.
Charcoal drawings on cave walls were the first recorded art and visual record of man. Charcoal has transcended man’s history, and is still a popular medium for drawing, even today
