Just Horsing Around

Just Horsing Around
Charcoal on mi-teintes paper
Jeek's Farm, Augusta, Missouri
While waiting for my primed panel to dry, I pulled out my charcoals to do a study of these horses.  One thing I like about charcoals that I don't like in graphite is that I don't have to be as careful with my paper.  The oils from my hand does not affect how the charcoal adheres to the surface.  That is a plus!  Still finding my way around the charcoals, but I am enjoying the process.  I plan to put this one down in oils one of these days, so a study is a real benefit.  This makes artwork number 181 in 181 days.
