Develop a solid command of charcoal drawing through hands-on exploration of core techniques including shading, blending, and subtractive methods. Students work on toned or mixed media paper to build depth, texture, and contrast, drawing from provided subjects or their own. Skills grow progressively through guided instruction and structured class critiques that sharpen artistic expression.
