ENHANCE TECHNICAL SKILLS
WITH NITRAM CHARCOAL
“Portrait”, 2024, by Mahi 42 cm. x 29.7 cm., Nitram Charcoal on paper
"Nitram Charcoal adds depth and texture to the drawing process, making it an indispensable tool for artists. Working with charcoal not only enriches my artistic practice but also holds great value as a fundamental medium in art education. Mastery of charcoal enhances technical skills and allows a seamless transition into painting, strengthening both technique and creative expression.
This portrait was created to showcase the unique qualities of Nitram Charcoal. The softer grades provide fluid, painterly strokes, while the harder sticks offer the precision needed for intricate work.”
