I like the rough, unfinished aspect to this piece.

I think your texture is working brilliantly with hair and the hand. It seems to be less effective on the back of the right arm. Its reminding me of a tree trunk. I think a little more of the paper texture would take care of it though.
p.s. I absolutely love your work.

Well, this was only and hour drawing, heh. More of a study of applying charcoal than a finished piece. I do, however, see your point. The arm is rather lacking.

very nice quick sketch, and lovely texture on the hair

This is beautiful! I love when drawings seem like they have such detail when really, the details are created in your head, and the artist is hinting at details. And charcoal does that really well too. This is truly stunning.

Beautiful work. The details on the face are really nice, but I kind of like the way it fades out to less tight imagery. It really draws attention to where you did detail.

I'm really trying to play with that more. I always think it's interesting when an image isn't treated the same everywhere, but I always end up treating all parts the same :/

you have mentioned in some of your earlier comments that you start messy, and then neaten it up. do you always follow this technique? is there any other?
i am just curious because i have been trying to work like you do,which works at times, but fails when attempted with acrylics.
any suggestions?

I cant really offer any help when it comes to painting. Starting messy works for me with the tools I use, but I dont paint.

I like how the face is so detailed and the hair has not much detail at all
Looks very nice
