This is the first time I've used charcoal powder, which is messy, but wonderful for blocking in large areas of tone, and building up the layers. This is one of my models, Paul, from the life drawing course. He always does superb poses; always considered and interesting. This one is based on a reference photo. I always start my life drawing studies with gesture, then I add more refinement to the contours, before blocking in tone, and finally adding more depth to the values. Definitely looking to do more of these in the not too distant future.
