Charcoal Portrait of Julie




Hi Everyone,
I have not been posting on here as much as I need to be. So since I had this picture on my computer I figured I would post it. I am in the middle of doing a whole bunch of painted portraits right now but I need something like this with instant gratification. Because the models have to come in on multiple sessions in order for me to complete a painting I get tired of waiting for a finished product. So I have recently decided to do these charcoal sketches as a way to practice my drawing skills and also feel a sense of accomplishment in one sitting.

I accidentally put the drawing paper on backwards when I did this so that contributes to the scratchy look of everything. Was interesting to draw on the wrong side but I don't think I'll do it again hehe. I am going to do a bunch of these I think. They really help my drawing skills and using charcoal, for me, is almost like painting without the color.
