Chalk is the oldest recorded art medium in history, which is also a tool used for drawings on blackboards, walls, brick floors, and even on paper. Chalks are made of pure limestone, and it smudges and blends easily, which makes it ideal for highlighting, shading, and contouring. Chalk produces different results when wet or combined with other pigments.

As Old as Time
Charcoal drawings date back to 26,000 BCE; they were used by early settlers for documentation and directional purposes. It become a medium for art in the mid-nineteenth century when the French impressionism movement began. The movement involved the use of realistic images instead of fantasy art.
Charcoal drawings were created out of charcoal sticks, which is a result of burned wood. Most charcoal drawings are sketched on canvas and painted over with oil pastels. Portraits were one of the first charcoal drawings.
Texture, tonal areas, and shading are three important details to consider when using charcoal for art designs. You produce different charcoal effects depending on the thickness of the charcoal stick you use.
If you plan on making any of the charcoal designs we we have, you need to have the right paper like the following:
- Stonehenge papers. This type of paper has a smooth surface and is heavier compared to ordinary paper. This helps in emphasizing layers. The paper is durable and can withstand repeated erasures.
- Lanaquarelle. This heavyweight and pricey paper has a more textured surface compared to Stonehenge paper. You may use this for medium charcoal drawings.
- Fine-toothed papers. If you want a cheap variety of paper, you may use this one. This paper has a smooth surface but less texture.
It also helps to use different sizes of charcoal sticks to produce varied and beautiful shades and strokes to your charcoal drawings.
