Charcoal Drawing: A “How To” Film.

A charcoal drawing of a female figure with her right hand in the air. She is wearing a spotted t-shirt and dark trousers with stripy flares at the bottom. In the background are lots of different textures.
Drawing big and messy.

Here’s a short “How To” film from a recent drawing session I ran at GS Artists in Swansea, as part of their 9to90 Community Arts programme. We did HUGE charcoal drawings onto big rolls of paper on the wall and the film shows all the mark-making we did. It was MESSY 😀 Here’s the film in under 2 minutes.

I really love the 9to90 Community Arts programme, it’s rare to have free public art sessions that include many people who might not normally go into art galleries. Jane Simpson and her colleagues at GS Artists have made the gallery so welcoming and informal. The film was made by Melvyn Williams.

I'm an artist / printmaker / scribbler. I love drawing and all the geeky stuff associated with printmaking, working in a figurative style. I live in Wales with husband and demented cats. And my real name is Rose Davies :D
