I bought my nephew a faber castelle charcoal kit and he hasn’t used it because he doesn’t understand charcoal. He is so incredibly talented at only 14 and I want him to live up to his full potential and try every medium out there. Even if I go bankrupt in the process. Lol

That’s really great of you. Faber Castell is a great brand. I used graphite until I graduated high school because that is what I got compliments on-it was my safe zone. 10 years later colored pencils/pastels are my favorite. Your nephew will grow and will later be thankful he already has the supplies when he’s ready to try something new 👍❤️

A diamond is nothing more then a piece of charcoal that handled pressure extremely well. Every charcoal drawing therefore has, from a materialistic perspective, the innate ability to become a diamond. That's probably why charcoal is one of my all time favorite mediums. One of the best mediums to start with for beginners as well. As a beginner you have to understand that art has to be one of a kind. It should be precious, extremely rare and unique... It should be like a diamond. Great video Kirsty

Well should not be precious because diamond is pure carbon And purest allotrope but charcoal have lumps of impurities and flaws in structure of carbon so it is not that precious and beautifully

I love charcoal. You are very skilled. I like willow charcoal for the first layer, because it is so easy to lift. For definite dark shadows you can go in with soft compressed carcoal, that is more difficult to erase.

Hi! i just wanted to say that i absolutely love you channel and the content you make! I'm taking Fine Arts course on college and as a freshman, i was so excited to learn and improve my art, but one of the professors wasn't really telling us what to do to improve our drawings, he's an amazing artist, i won't deny that. But for people like us having troubles with our drawing, we were struggling to improve. But videos like yours here on KZfaq truly helped me cope up with our subject. Thank you so much for sharing your talent!

Do you ever use charcoal as a subtractive medium rather than additive? I've had a lot of fun with creating dark backgrounds and using mostly erasers to create drawings. This was a great video, definitely makes me want to play more with this medium.

I learned a lot just by watching this video. Charcoal drawing is the art of producing finished drawings and sketchy studies using charred sticks of wood; property of charcoal as a medium is that it is ephemeral, readily wiped, or smudged.
