Old House, Compressed Charcoal Sticks
This old house was drawn in an neglected forgotten village back home. It shows one of the
run-down houses of the deserted settlement, depicting its spooky atmosphere, and paints a vivid picture of a haunting scene in an abandoned Ukrainian village.
I used Compressed Charcoal Sticks for this drawing. The use of this medium adds a layer of
intensity to the depiction, enhancing the eerie atmosphere of the dilapidated house and the overall desolation of the village. It emphasizes the dramatic settings of this crumbling territory.
Charcoal is known for its ability to create bold and expressive strokes, allowing the artist to capture the dramatic essence of the subject. The choice of medium aligns well with the theme
of a spooky and abandoned environment. The shabby house becomes a focal point, telling
a story of the village's forgotten past and the passage of time.
