A few days ago i ordered some special pencils. They are from General Pencil Company this is a copy from there page.

GENERAL'S® CARBON SKETCH™ PENCIL

This fine art pencil has a unique formula combining the smoothness of graphite with the deep rich blacks of charcoal. It lays down smooth, strong, jet-black lines for sketching, drawing, or layout. Perfect when used alone, it can also be combined with charcoal or graphite for a variety of effects. Available by the dozen or in blisterpacks of 2   I have used these once on my piece "Tiger Lily at Night" which can be found on my website or on my facebook page. When i used then the first time I was looking for a nice deep balck coverage for the background of the piece, and i got everything i wanted and more. The Coverage was fast and even, the carbon layed down very smooth and was easy to use. I love them so much i ordered 12 more.

As soon as i get a video camera for my computer i will start doing some prodcut and book reviews. I have several things i would love to talk about and share my thoughts on.

A new Start

Hello everyone, this is my first ever attempt at blogging. So i decided to blog about something i know a little about and something that has literally saved my life. That very thing is Art, by art i mean drawing colored pencil, graphite, and charcoal. I am however looking at expanding what media i am using, but all things in due time. I hope you will find some interest in this and maybe learn a new trick of two or even share some
