Time flys by, I didn't realise how long it's been since I last posted.

I have been busy with our exhibition and this grey wolf is what I worked on while 'on duty' there.
The medium is again tinted charcoal, although this time I used a tan coloured mounting board....not a great idea as the charcoal didn't take too well on it, still you live and learn. It measures 12.5" square.

    Wow ... beautiful soft finish to this Bev - It looks more like pastel than charcoal.

    Are the tinted charcoals lightfast?

    Thanks Sue, No the tinted charcoal pencils are not too lightfast on the whole....some colours are better than others but they could be much better.

    Thanks Karen, I love wolves too.
