WOOOW that's so impressive.

Charcoal... Just a question: How do you do the reflection in the eyes? Do you leave it out with charcoal and use the white paper or do you actually apply some white color?

Thank you! Great question, it’s the natural paper whiteness. 👍

Do you cover it up until the surrounding area is complete? I'd be worried about the charcoal smearing onto it

Thanks for your question. No, if it accidentally gets smeared onto it I just use the eraser to clean it. I hope that makes sense. 👍
