Charcoal charm! Love it, Stephen...and yes, it always feels like I'm painting when I'm using it!

Many thanks Thalia, I read an article LP some years ago about using charcoal and watercolour, must have another go sometime.

Very nice sketch , I always make such a mess with charcoal that I have given up on it. It’s so good to see someone using it well.

Small charcoal sketch of this charming little Derbyshire Dales village, from an old photo. Always enjoy using charcoal, seems more like painting somehow.
