I am working on a drawing for someone with charcoal. It's a french bulldog. I haven't drawing with charcoal for a while. But I'm finding that I'm enjoying it alot. It is so much more sensitive than graphite. I can really work like crazy with graphite and mess with it and let my hand rest about anywhere without messing it up. But charcoal wipes off so easily. I find myself doing hand-acrobatics! Almost like twister for hands! But it blends easier and I can play around with the kneaded eraser so much more productively. Like I said, I'm enjoying it!
Here's a picture of my progress:
