Oh I added that question mark in photoshop, not sure why the quality isn't very good though, might need to scan it again. I like using willow charcoal, although it smudges very easily, it makes you focus more on the actual shapes and where the light hits the surface as opposed to getting tied up in nitty gritty details with pencil. Once again, thank you for the comment. Means a lot to me. XD
It is true, this medium lets you focus more on capturing a feeling, a certain intent, and a basic outline of what you are trying to convey, rather than concentrating on small details. I really strange contrast to what people sometimes consider as perfection. Beautiful work
Brilliant work. As luis said the little touch of the question mark is nicely done. Reminds me a little of Francis Bacon almost.

thecasualblue Thanks, it's funny that you should bring up francis bacon as both my art teachers mentioned him as well and said they saw some kind of a resemblance lol I'm not too fond of his work, but he has an interesting style of drawing.
Negative drawing, using willow charcoal + putty rubber + cotton wool + graphite. enjoy.
