Drawing - Compressed Charcoal On Paper
Description
A2 Charcoal and Conte drawing of a man resting in a crouching pose, done on Daler Rowney Fine Grain Heavyweight 200gsm paper.
In most of the drawings that I do, but especially in the figure drawings, I never revise or erase any of the marks I make. The initial thought was to possibly imbue a spontaneous freshness and to see how this would actually effect my drawing style. I guess it worked as far as the marks I make are concerned, which are all quickly done. What was unexpected was that along with the fun I had a strong feeling of apprehension which was rather stressful.
Im still interested in capturing the energy of the stroke with the marks I make - but am also getting interested in how both the shading and light can bleed into the subjects, giving form.
This version was worked up from a quick life drawing sketch - the smudging done with fingers, kitchen towel and a cardboard stick.

Wonderfully sculptural use of the charcoal to reveal the human form. Masterful work.
