A quick charcoal drawing that I made during studio at Pratt. I wanted to give the students a little change of pace and try to loosen them up with a more fluid medium after all their intense procedural mechanical drawings. I started here with a crumpled paper bag to demonstrate building tone and highlight, then I just let the emerging forms guide a new landscape. The result began to take the appearance of a subterranean landscape, so I threw a few figures in to bring a sense of scale to the scene. We had a lot of fun translating the students projects into more expressive and environmental interpretations through a great messy medium, charcoal.
