Quick Sketches
Charcoal rapid implementation and ease with which capture different shades of light and darkness makes it almost as an indispensable means for artists who want a quick idea and transcribe his vision on the canvas more Later the use of oil or acrylic paints. For more complicated designs, the first sketch with a pencil what you want to draw on paper. This will provide a framework to which you can add more detail and texture. Also, remember that coal can be a bit uncomfortable. If you're working out, that's not a problem. Inside, be sure to put sheets of newspaper or cloth dust you will be working.
A basic background
Most charcoal drawings start dusting or rubbing the paper with a light shade of black for any white paper shows through. The easiest way to do this is to take a knife sharp, bark chips charcoal stick on paper, then smear the chips with your fingers or a blending tool.
Frame your subject
Start by cleaning the areas that are lighter with an eraser. When finished, use your finger or a tool to mess fusion lights and shadows to each rank flows gracefully into the next. Using charcoal stick, drawing the contour lines and rapid movement with quick, short to define the subject and show the areas of circulation.
Light vs Shadow
This is where other means charcoal win due to the rich tones can create dark and the contrast between darkness and light. The use of hard coal for sharp detail, moving to a softer coal along the edges. Use your finger, a blender or a brush to soften and create shadows. Or, draw a hard and sharp outline of the image and the shadow on the inside to create the appearance of shiny metal that reflects light or sunlight shining on the subject's face. This volume drawing type can also make use of cross-hatch marks, especially for heavier textures.
Final Steps
If the hatch is done correctly, the picture should have a 3D appearance. When you've finished adding lines and contours, clear any coal unnecessary background and the use of hard lines to reinforce the image of the scheme. With a fixative, such as a resin or plastic spray, lightly coat the finished drawing to protect from additional stains or deleted by accident.
