Erasers aren't just for mistakes ;)

I really fell in love with charcoal last year when I was taking a local drawing course here in Airdrie from Jane Romanishko.
I'm not sure what it is exactly that I like so much about it. I do really enjoy black and white and love drawing portraits but it's soooo much messier than using pencils :). I think one of the main reasons I love it is that your eraser is just as much your tool for drawing as the charcoal itself.

The left image is a quick 45min charcoal sketch I did tonight. I took the photo reference of my youngest a few months ago when we were goofing around with some excellent dollar store glasses I found :)

Thanks to my good friend Michele. Our chat this afternoon motivated me to get my sketch on ;)

    Growing up in Central Alberta, the Prairies will always be my home.  I love to capture local landscape through photography and iPhone editing.  Having the flexibility of mobile editing has been an amazingly creative tool for me.  I love experimenting and learning and am excited to see what this next year will bring.
