Charcoal Drawings

Memories are important to everyone and being able to capture a person or a moment in a way other than a photograph is always special. Charcoal drawings or charcoal portraits are one such way to do this and in order to get a quality drawing that you can proudly hang on the wall, you should approach Jessica Rockwell.

Jessica Rockwell is well known as an artist and she has been known to bring moments, people and pets to life through charcoal drawings or charcoal portraits and other methods which include oil paintings. Since her charcoal drawings are so affordable, people and families are using her skills for any charcoal portrait that they feel deserves a special memory. These drawings are a great idea for a gift for a friend or loved one, especially if it marks a special day or event or a time in life. Ms. Rockwell creates her masterpieces by using photographs as a reference. Usually these photographic references come from a family's favorite snapshots. However, if you want something new, a photo shoot can be arranged by her photographer husband, Gerry Chromoy.

The paper that is used for the drawing is of the finest archival materials-100% cotton rage- and she uses the time-honored techniques of the Masters. Although each of her oil portraits can take several months to complete, for a charcoal drawing the timing is more flexible. A charcoal drawing can often be planned to fit the time schedule of the client, and sometimes can even be done in as short a time as one week, if urgently needed.

Ms. Rockwell has been well trained in fine art and it is this combined with her inspiration and her experience that allows her to produce charcoal drawings of this quality.
