I've been using a bit of the various types of charcoal of late. Pencil, compressed stick and the basic sticks (not sure of actual name for these!)Working onto paper and often doing quick sketches of people I spend time with. On one occasion I attended a lecture during Adelaide Festival of Ideas and sketched the speaker and facillitator. All good practice in speed work.
This is my wife Karen, reading in my studio. Messed up the nose a bit but it is only a preliminary work to a possible oil painting.
Australia's glorious PM (Julia) and the Leader of the Opposition (Tony)
Two views of the same guy but the first a much quicker work.
