Wonderful tutorial
I have just one question
When i use charcoal pencil directly on the paper it appears very rough and and hard to blend.
I need your advice to make my drawings soft and beautiful like yours

[@Shadrachasante]

Shading directly with the charcoal pencil is usually difficult to blend for a smooth effect . Unless you’re shading the hair.. use charcoal powder. It can be applied with a brush or cotton bud for a smooth blend

[@user-xe2uc1de1k]

And again how do you chean your blend stumps

[@Shadrachasante]

I trim it using a blade

[@findingdestiny7711]

Please how do you prime the canvas after completion. Thank you

[@Shadrachasante]

It’s not a canvas but a Canson paper

[@geoffreyklutse7021]

Please what kind of brush do you use , normal painting brush or makeup artist brush?

[@Shadrachasante]

Painting brush.. Royal Art brush

[@governordimoku9562]

How do you dip your brush in charcoal powder?, what quantity of it gets cut in the brush at a time. Could you please show us how that works

[@Shadrachasante]

Just the tip of the brush..
you can use two brushes.. the shading brush and a clean brush.. after using the shading brush, go over with the clean brush to remove excess charcoal powder.. Also, my drawing board isn’t laid flat on a surface but mounted upright on a wall .. when laid flat, the paper retains more charcoal powder.. You can also start the shading with a cotton bud or blending stump to easily control the charcoal powder before shading over with the brush to make the shading smoother.
Keep practicing..💪🏾
