FND Froggie in charcoal pencils

First sketch in charcoal. Blended a lot with a tortillion(?) (those paper sticks with a point). Found that charcoal goes fast, did this in about a half hour. So, went on to draw the Flamingo (another post).

This is great *S* Oh I use water soluable oils. I can't draw very well. Get more out of paint. I'm always amazed when I see people get so much out of graphite.

Thanks everyone, for your kind comments.

Eileen, I used a cheap drawing pad called "Impressions" which I bought at a Hobby Lobby. Hoever, there's a nice tooth to it.
