Charcoal Work

This has been my first charcoal work...
I am just loving the work that i get out of charcoal...
This picture is inspiring me to do more and more works...
Hope i get some time :)
Here i have used a handmade paper with black charcoal
Intricate details i have done using colour pencils..as well as charcoal pencil..
it has almost taken 3 hours for me to complete it on the whole...

It is quite easy to do a work in charcoal..but one should know the exact way of using it...
There are wide variety of forms in charcoal...any medium can be used,either a pencil or a stick..
Will soon try to post a tutorial on this..
Do leave ur comments and suggestions..

My Pencil Shading work

Pencil Shading is what i started off to learn on basics of drawing and shading and am just loving it...it eats lot of my time.. but the output you get is just awesome..
anybody can try to do this basic pencil shading....
Will keep on posting more on this...

Also would love to thank my Drawing Sir Mr.Murugendran for helping me so much.
