      CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

      Drawing with charcoal is one of the most traditional art mediums, which has been used by a variety of artists known to many, like Rembrandt, Pablo Picasso and Leonardo Da Vinci.

      Most artists that use charcoal are those who practiced and got used to hand strokes in pen or graphite pencil, and then decided to use charcoal when they could not achieve the pitch of black depth they wanted.
