Charcoal Pencils for Beginners - Simple Still Life

Join me in this full charcoal pencils tutorial designed with newcomers in mind. This is a full step-by-step lesson so download the reference photos below, check the materials list, and follow along!

MATERIALS YOU'LL NEED
- Dark/black charcoal pencil (best to have a couple to work between). - White charcoal pencil. - Any mid-toned drawing paper (I use a mid-grey drawing paper by Strathmore so it doesn't t have to be pastel paper). A tan colour would work well too. - Paper bending stump.
- Craft knife and sanding block (or piece of sandpaper) to sharpen pencils.

I mention a photo editor in the video for those who don't have a Mac, iPad or photo software. Go here: https://pixlr.com/editor/
