How to Add Layers in Charcoal Drawing?

- Compressed charcoal is way denser than vine charcoal, and gives richer darks and sharper contrast as a result. Using it on top of a layer of vine charcoal is a bit tricky though, which is what I demonstrate in this video.

The masterful understanding of light and contrast by the artist is nothing short of spectacular! This is a Master at work.
What we are seeing is the exemplary skill of an artist who knows his craft. Being an artist, I just sat and enjoyed the ride.
P.s. the music from Desert Planet was amazing as well.
Absolutely Brilliant‼️👌♥️
As far as drawing is concerned it appears to me that charcoal will result in drawings with the most depth without having to overwork the areas where you want the most contrast, I need to try a charcoal drawing it takes a while to flatten solid black forms with lead. This drawing is excellent the light source focusing just behind her eye is very interesting, the piece would be completely different if the light was moved forward an inch or even half an inch. Great job!

@@EhsanMalekiArt Are you from pakistan by any chance? I'm from there, too, and am self-taught. I also dabble in charcoal. It was great that I found your channel.
No I'm not, very glad you liked the content 🙏🙏🙏
@@EhsanMalekiArt Keep up the great work!
Master of arts! But One question: how did you manage to brush it brighter (3:12) and darker( 3:02) by using the same "finger sweeping technique", but with contract result ??? It looks like magic.
thank you very much.. I rub a finger into charcoal powder and use it to darken, and use a clean finger to lighten up values
Merci, généreux
This is brilliant - thank you. Can you tell us what paper you were working on.
thank you ... regular newsprint paper
Agregar algo mas significativo a lo dicho por los que presencian este trabajo, es imposible ,solo puedo decir ! Fabuloso ,, el dueño de las sombras y la luz"
Clever . Cultivating your own competition
It’s called “sharing knowledge”. A principle of human culture.
نوع کاغذ و مقوا را مشخص میکردی عالی بود کارت عالی است
A real artist is noticeable from the first strokes.
Thank you
How does he remove charcoal (lighten an area) by rubbing his finger?
Sticks to his finger.
It’s vine/willow charcoal - it’s very soft delicate charcoal and it doesn’t stick to the paper very well, it creates a layer of velvety dark dust that just sits lightly on the paper surface and it can be swept away or erased with rubber or kneadable erasers or tissues, fingers, brushes, etc. It’s super easy to manipulate and one of the fastest mediums to work with.
This MF was excellent 👏🏿
thank you
Is that vine charcoal?
Yes it is
No mention of the negative tools
هنرتون ستودنی هست ،جسارتا از چه نوع زغالی استفاده کردید ؟
متشکرم زغال درختی کرتا کالر
What is the paper? The vine charcoal lifts with no staining at all.
Newsprint paper which has a little bit of tooth
@@EhsanMalekiArt Thanks. I’ve tried various smooth cotton rag for archival purposes but even the vine charcoal doesn’t lift as well as it looks like it does with newsprint. What would give similar results to newsprint that would be acid free and thus archival?
@@allanpennington Strathmore and Arches both produce archival paper for charcoal, the only catch is you feel precious and not experiment enough
@@EhsanMalekiArt I agree, practice is good with newsprint. I had tried arches hot press 100% cotton water colour paper but even vine charcoal leaves a stain so you can’t lift a bright highlight. Mad Charcoal YT uses arches bfk rives a print cotton rag. I have a piece I’ll try out to see how well vine lifts. At the end of the day I’ll probably end up going darker across all values and the highlights won’t be original paper white but the lightest tone left behind by the vine charcoal.
@@allanpennington I see, This is an issue with most archival paper... thats why I opted out, now I work on grey newsprint and after the drawing is done in case I want to archive it, I will fix it with spray and then paste it on sturdy foamboards
what type of paper do you use?
regular newsprint paper
@@EhsanMalekiArt thankyou Ehsan
This video has less to do with showing how to add layers than with just showing the evolution of the drawing.
Yeah. Thought he’d use fixative or something to do actual layers. Was just click bait for a simple drawing.
@@AT-ol2yj First layer is done by vine charcoal and then he moves to compressed charcoal and charcoal pencil for darkening areas. That's what it seems to me. I have never seen people using fixative on charcoal drawing before it's finished. Do you have some example of that? I'd like to see how charcoal works when drawn over fixative.
You should watch again and read the description. Watch more carefully.
@@AT-ol2yj This is multilayered. And far from ‘simple’. You are confusing fixative with skill. If you have the honest capacity for learning then I recommend you read the video description and then watch again, only more carefully.
Оne word:brush.
Though cotton works too.
Judging by your hands you are a insta girl...lol. hands of a master
✌✌🙏🙏
Short answer: to add layers in charcoal, mist it lightly with fixative, wait a minute, keep drawing.
Better answer: spray a mist of alcohol. It’ll allow more pigment to be placed without gluing down the previous layer
Where's your reference?
Si l'on ne vois pas l'image de référence, c inutile de regarder ce que vous faite, ça ne nous aide pas !
hi
140K views for this yet one most others in the less than 100 to 1000 range? I don't get it?
Po co to szarpanie węglem. Ach. Taki artysta
Interesting video from a technical point of view but after 2::37 the drawing deteriorates to decorative realism.
By the way you should have shown also the fixation...
A demonstration with no instruction or text...That's not a "how to".
That's a, " see what I can do ".
I strongly disagree. You just watched a strong portrait from start to finish by a skilled artist. Something very rare to observe before youtube.
You still don't get it? I don't think text will help you
Beautiful
