Drawing -- Room with a ...
Our second exercise was slightly more traditional. It was titled "Room with a ..." and was executed in charcoal. For a room I chose a very modern looking mall space and for objects occupying the mall, I chose valves (vacuum tubes) and speakers from inside an old console radio. Almost no other student in the class had any idea what I was drawing. Many of them only had a vague idea of what a console radio was. The drawing is 42 inches by 56 inches and was executed almost entirely in vine (light) charcoal. I finally turned to compressed charcoal for the darkest blacks. I enjoyed working with charcoal in a large format and will do some more this summer.
