SynopsisCharcoal is the quintessential favorite for sketching. It's an infinitely expressive medium with its own language, one that comprises textures, lines, strokes, and tones. Charcoal Drawing provides comprehensive instructions for basic techniques as well as complex renderings. You will learn how to use charcoal, paper, erasers, and fixative to create a variety of subjectsùfrom landscapes and still lifes to faces, figures, and more. And whether you are an experienced artist or just a beginner, the step-by-step drawing exercises will be of great value to you. You'll be amazed at what you can create with this deceptively simple medium., A long-time favorite for sketching, charcoal is also a very expressive medium. This book teaches both the basic techniques of drawing and how to develop an "artist's eye" -- to see the essential elements and ignore the superfluous details. And because the projects advance from simple to complex, there is something for artists at every skill level. Book jacket.

  • Great Book! Great Company!

    The book is in great shape! No torn pages, no missing pages, cover was slightly bent but no big deal, no marking inside. I will be using it daily until I get good enough & understand most of it. Then it will be put on my book shelf for later reference. This book is exactly what I was looking for to learn how to use charcoal.
