Lessons learned while using charcoal for the first time:

1.) Charcoal is a great medium for me!....if I don't brush away imaginary eraser garbage.
2.) Holy Christfuck I cannot draw anymore, at least not by looking at a picture and trying to copy
3.)I much prefer hard charcoal.
4.) Those things look delicate but I can put a decent amount of pressure on it.
5.)Maybe I shouldn't have started off by trying to draw a picture I haven't seen very long and where there's a lot of black hair, a black shirt, heavy half covered eyes, low eyebrows, and a Black Clove cigarette. Especially when I haven't drawn in so long. Heh.
