as requested by joonblues , here's my favorite charcoal drawing i've done (which is one of two JSDJND)
THIS DRAWING IS HUGE. ITS 18inx24in OR 46cmx61cm
FOR ALL YOU PEOPLE WHO ARE GONNA BE LIKE 'tf is this crazy set up' ITS A STILL LIFE ;-; (you combine random objects together in a scene and draw what you see in front of you)
yes I got assigned a freaking horse skull, but yes, it's also the best part.
I don't like charcoal but this was for a camp I went to last summer eye—
charcoal is so MESSY and DOESNT ERASE. I used charcoal shavings/powder and pencils for this. kneaded erasers were a blessing though.
hardest part was the details of the skull, because if you zoom in (i don't think you can) there's a crap ton of details in it. i'm a sucker for details ;)

1. how long does a drawing take? depends but I can go through the list of ones i've posted so far :)
-sunset: 5 hours-ish (split over like three days because my patience📉📉) -fish: 4 hours -horse: 4 hours -mushroom: 2 hours -lips: 3 hours-ish (I had to split over two days so I can't remember exactly) -face: 1.5 hours :) -mots:7: 4 hours-ish (lots of breaks because the frustration📈📈)

^^thats like setting up the scene, lighting fixtures, sketching, drawings, sealing... but yeah a full week in the studio with like five hours a day(?)
I remember being the last one to finish and I spent all my free time during my camp that specific week working on this bad boy smh. my dormmates would come and visit me in the studio LOL
