    This has helped me so much! I never worked with charcoal before, but always wanted to give it a try. Totally didn’t regret it, and I actually enjoyed it so much I decided to definitely stick to it.
    Thank you so much!!

    Will there be more videos with this medium?

    One of my Christmas presents to myself – I had so much fun! Excellent course, Aaron. Working in charcoal was brand new to me, as well as working so large! Both were a delight. I’m done with the lion, and have started one of my own of a Bighorn Ram. I’m looking forward to doing more works in charcoal!
