Life drawing, from sketchbook into A2 charcoal finished work …..

Following on from my last post, I have now completed a finished A2 sized Charcoal drawing based on the sketch work I posted two days ago.

I have very much enjoyed this process of working from sketchbook into a full sized drawing and I intend to use this method from now on 🙂 …….

For sometime I have wanted to start sharing my charcoal and pencil figure drawings here on my blog, first however I wanted to get my drawing skills up-to a level I was truly happy with, I feel that I still have a lot of work to do in order to be consistent from drawing to drawing.

I am happy however to start sharing with people some of the drawings and painting I have been creating, this drawing was produced today , drawing as freely as possible and doing my best to make the minimum of marks needed to produce the finish work ……
