Materials I used during this session were charcoal, an eraser and an A2 piece of paper. The techniques I used during this session were drawing, shading, positive and negative space, scale, measuring, and tonal study. The formal elements I looked at were line, shape and form and tone.
After practicing using charcoal in other sessions last term and working on it as it was one of my weaknesses, I found it much easier to use the charcoal effectively and made my drawing work quite well. I found that my drawing was quite accurate so I was really pleased with how it turned out in the end of the session. Areas of my work that worked well were the shading and tone which I was really pleased with. Areas of my work that didn't work so well and could be improved are the hands and feet again because I really struggled to draw them, and the proportions of the figure because I think it looks out of proportion, particularly the legs. Overall I was quite impressed with how much my drawing using charcoal had improved since last term and I think the use of shading and tone worked really well.
