Reductive Value Still-Life

A black and white charcoal reductive value drawing of a still life containing a funnel, milk carton, book, and ball.

The drawing shows a funnel, milk carton, book, and small ball resting in front of a draped curtain. To create this drawing, I covered the paper with vine charcoal. Then, I selectively erased to create the forms of the still life and used compressed charcoal and a white conte crayon to emphasize the lights and darks of the still-life. While this project mostly covers value, aspects basic forms and shapes are also present, as well as negative shapes.
