Today I went to a different pace for life drawing where they had proper lights set up. The guy did a demo of drawing form dark to light. The whole page is greyed out with charcoal and you then basically draw the light source with your eraser. Interesting technique so I had to try it, I don't really like the drawing but I love the texture. It's almost as interesting as a painting! So I took some close ups to show of the texture!
Warm up sketch:
First 30 minute pose (graffite pencil)
Detail (charcoal)
Detail 2 (Charcoal)
That's a cool technique by graying out the paper with charcoal. Never tried that before. I like the texture of it. I especially like how the face was coming out.
