Description
I decided to play around with my Charcoal Pencil set that was graciously given to me by my Art Teacher. I have been afraid to touch them because I did not want to waste them, but my mentor reminded me that going with instinct is sometimes
needed to learn.
So I did some sketches/studies. I'm not too disappointed, but there is a lot for me to learn still.
All together 'round 50 mins (Did some touch ups afterwards with the pencils and blending)

I really like the eye in the middle on the left 
the only advice I can give you is about eyelashes...They don't really stand on their own, they kind of clump together and create X and upside down V shapes. Of course, there are a few that do stand alone, too. They also vary in darkness and length. Examples of this are the eyes in [link] </shameless self promotion>
Anyway, I really like this kind of shading. It somehow reminds me of those marble statues by artists like Michelangelo. I think it would be awesomeif you did a full portrait in paper and charcoal pencils like this
