AAD09 Drawing in Museum

My Charcoal Drawings

‘Charcoal of a Wolf’

We were asked to create a series of charcoal drawings based on objects within the Museum. At first I found it difficult to create drawings and keep in mind the negative space. After having some practice on the first day, I became more confident. I used willow charcoal to create a contrast of both light and dark strokes and tones for example for the Wolf’s hair. I also used a rubber to create a variety of different markings especially for the mountains in the background. I am really happy with the final outcome and this is one of my favourite charcoal drawings that I produced during the time within the museum.

Below are some of the other charcoal drawings that I have done.
