"Portrait of a young man" charcoal, powder and water drawing on Arches

I used an interesting combination of tools in this drawing, starting off with the block in using charcoal powder mixed with water applied with a brush, its like painting with charcoal, then all the smaller shapes were tweaked with vine charcoal mostly, the paper towel is handy for the edges too, the definitive strokes were drawn in the end with a charcoal pencil.
