Charcoal Exercise

Fiona this is brilliant you have totally inspired yourself and come up with a most interesting work on every level. Great work

At least you did your outside. Fiona. I remember we had a pile of junk in the middle of the studio. You have a good teacher there. It's good lost of interest.

Very interesting study Fiona, love all the bits crossing over and going under. Difficult to do I would think.

Great fun, well done.

Lovely stuff Fiona.

Wonderful exercise, Fiona, it looks 3D.

That looks like the stuff we did last year Fiona but your method is different and it more inventive. I must try it one day. I like your scrap yard a lot!

It's a good method - I use it for portraits. Well done!

This is fabulous Fiona and I absolutely love it! It's a wonderful piece, so much to look at and such a good combination of shapes!!!

Thank you all very much for commenting on my 'scrap yard challenge'! I've found this term so rewarding, even if we are only drawing scrap or unidentifiable objects. I also love this method of rubbing out but it's so messy.

ReLly good tonal work Fiona, great shapes.

Interesting....

Love it.

VERY GOOD AND SO MUCH DETAIL LOVELY WORK.

Great exercise and, again, so well done.

Ooh Fiona, this is brilliant, so interesting and different. I'm not on here much these days, I can't stay on the computer long for physical reasons, but I can see some really great work of yours - you seem to be trying out lots of new media and techniques and your interest has been fired up?! So great to see.
