Using the beautiful photography of Karl Blossfeldt, the year 7s made these charcoal drawings. I got them to work in reverse by covering their paper with charcoal first. Using putty rubbers they took away the white areas and left the darker areas. They used charcoal and white chalk for fine details, and to acheive a wide range of tone. I love this technique as it is really fun, messy and if the students make a mistake, they just rub some charcoal over the top.
