I bought willow charcoal a while ago but haven't used it apart from one quick sketch just to test it out. I fished it out of my art box again today for this sketch of the Grand Canal. I was just going for the basic shape of the canal but even then I find charcoal very difficult to work with. It's also pretty messy. You certainly get found out pretty quickly as an artist. I have much respect for those who can do amazing work with this stuff.
