Carlos, thank you. I must tell you, you do some excellent work your self.
Alex, thank you for your thoughts and compliments. As you can probably tell art has a special place in my life. I can see the same in your art as well that is the joy that you receive from it. I notice this in the subjects you chose and how you wish to portray them. Even your land and city scapes tell of you love for art.

Hello Mischa,
I apologize for being so late to this thread, but things have been hectic here. These are beautiful drawings, sensitive and with flawless technique with charcoal. I especially like the woman, beautiful and graceful pose.
You are also very generous in your offer of quidance, thank you.
Jean

Jean, no apologies necessary, I know you have been busy with food and all and your own drawing. Still, thank you for taking the time to comment. I hope these have given you some idea what the possibilities are while working in charcoal.
There are many excellent draftsman today and some of their charcoals are a breath of fresh air. I think we must have that breath otherwise the terps mite cloud our mind.
Michele, thank you. Its nice of you to comment. Congrats on the new commissions!

Julie, thank you and I do appreciate you taking the time to comment. Many a time, I struggle with the thought 'should I post the work or not'? I am so appreciative of the gift and the opportunity to be an artist. At the same time my hope is that what I share will encourage individuals to set high standards. I too, still have much to learn but the foundation is solid. Sure it took time and hard work but it was worth every dime and every painful moment.
Thanks again and keep up the good work with the home open studio.

David, thank you for the kind words and for taking the time to comment. I am glad to hear that the drawings have been a encouragement for one to strive for excellence. Not to say that I have attained this yet but I strive forward towards the goal a goal that is before each one of us.
Thanks again and all the best to you
