Description quick drawing of a skeleton I did between 2 classes in the drawing studio. I wanted to draw the model who was there, but the class was so freakin packed that I just dug into a corner of the room and drew what I could access

This drawing is amazing! Just thought I'd let you know that it is all over Pinterest and Tumblr but you are not credited anywhere. It took me ages to track the source. I am going to credit you right away on my Pinterest board. PS is this drawing for sale?

A lovely skeleton study, your marks are loose and gestural but also demonstrate an understanding of structure at the same time.

I absolutely love this, how some areas are really detailed and the smudgy outline.
what type of charcoal do you use? is it in pencil form or just a stick? I wanna try to get into charcoal drawings.

great work

this particular drawing was done using both charcoal pencils and vine charcoal sticks. Pretty soon after this drawing I also got into powdered charcoal, which is also awesome.

I love all your work. I like the line that you use to accent the forms and create negative space. Is this on arches as well? Just bought a sheet today. Cannot wait to try it out.

napoleoman In reply to johnnygun420 [2010-05-18 23:52:19 +0000 UTC]

yup that's arches
It is a fairly textured paper though, so you may or may not like it. If you want something with a little less tooth I would suggest BFK Rives (you'll most likely find it right next to Arches paper)
