All the energy and effort of working towards the Summer Sketchbook exhibition has been quite draining and in antithethis to this I wanted to work much larger and without the constraint of colour (this may sound curious, but colour can be restrictive - certainly to me). I embarked upon a series of drawings from round about and further afield.
Charcoal is a wonderful medium - instant and unfussy. The drawings are approximately 3 feet across.

hi tim,these are just great! the freedom of charcoal really allows such wonderful movement to be conveyed,particularly when portraying the power of the waves.i understand completely your thoughts on the constraints of colour,dont know about you but i find working in monotone leaves the mind less cluttered and therefore more able to concentrate on the business of art.
Hi Tim, beautiful work. There are a few I've missed on wetcanvas like the rock with a hole in it. Makes me want to look up my charcoal again.
