A Tale of Two skulls

I was prepping painting stuff and had other obligations this week so I did a little drawing of two skulls. Charcoal pencil, no stumping. It might seem I have a morbid fascination with skulls but it wasn't mean to be a "finished" drawing project per se but just a time filler and some practice drawing from life (or death, more appropriately). Skulls are just interesting to draw. Or then maybe they're my "Wilson", my made-up friend..

Charcoal skull and feathers

It's been a while since I drew in charcoal so I did this...trying out a new procedure explained by a great friend. It's quite small, 6 by 8 so the texture really shows when you get close on the photo..definitely better to see the real thing but hey, it's the internet..

Yours truly...in charcoal

Not the clearest photo of it . But I'm happy with the original...
