A revisiting of the same image I drew back in 2010, only this time starting with black paper using white charcoal.
First time with only using white charcoal — have occasionally used it for highlights, but only rarely and never as the main medium. Was very surprised how quickly the drawing took shape and the ethereal nature of the result. This was “finished” in less than a quarter of the time of the original!
