Portrait

This is a charcoal work on paper. I use charcoal pencil to arrest the dark portions of the face. To get the volume of the portrait the cross hatching technique is followed. First the strocks are drawn in same angle and then with a differcnce so that crosses are made. The dencity of strocks and crosses creates the dark and middle tones antd the light portions are left paper white. To have a better effect I used the rough surface of the Cartridge paper.
