More Very Quick Sketches in Charcoal

More VERY quick sketches in the Feather Journal with a black charcoal pencil on a gessoed book page. I think I'm beginning to make friends with charcoal...


I used an old photo of my great-grandmother taken in the late 1800s, I think, but didn't even try for a likeness. Maybe one day!


A second QUICK sketch of me when I was little (I wasn't really this ugly). Again, didn't try for a likeness! Just practice trying get the upper hand on the charcoal! Black charcoal pencil on a clear gessoed page.
