Sketching for Illustration Update

Charcoal drawings are wrapped in shrink wrap and very glossy and difficult to shoot.

Adjusted the master copy to get it accurate in values but the blacks look too dark here.

What I have here is some work from several weeks ago and also the recently completed master copy. I still have to photograph the work done before the master copy (5-object still live, shirt paintings, etc.) I am showing all homework because I've worked too slow in class to have anything worth showing. (This week, however, we are going to have lots of in-class time to work!)
