In this video, i decide to back-play the drawing process to make you understand better, so don't be surprise.





Reverse charcoal drawing



A great drawing technique that can transform your artwork is reverse charcoal drawings.

Color the entire page black. To create a reverse charcoal drawing you need to start with a black page. Use a charcoal stick to color the entire page black. Use your fingers to even and smooth the color.



Use a spotlight in the dark on your model or object you are drawing when learning this technique as it will exaggerate highlights and shadows for your to pick up in your drawing.



Draw your sketch. Draw using your eraser, erase by adding more black or smearing with fingers. Use your retractable eraser to draw your image as you would normally use a pencil. If you make an error in your sketch, use your finger to fill the line back in with the black charcoal.



Use your erasers as drawing tools. The retractable eraser is used to make fine lines. The kneaded eraser is used to take of small amounts of charcoal, creating gray areas.
