There's something especially raw and vibrant in these works. They have a strong visceral feel to them.
I think they're fantastic  |

Thank you for your positive comments...you've helped my confidence a LOT...
yes, fingerprints get everywhere, on and off the paper  sometimes on purpose, sometimes not... takes days to actually get clean hands after these... i will post more in this same thread in a few days.

whoa! how long have you been working in charcoal? my drawing teacher keeps asking us to use it. and for a beginner like me it's soooo hard to control. but you seem to do just fine, using the dark quality of it to your advantage.
