After a discussion on getting Sketchy I pulled out some tinted charcoal pencils I have not used in years to do a drawing. 'This was just critiqued on the Members Minute. I hope you enjoy this and any suggestions are welcome. Thank you for taking a look. ![IMG_0490](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/thevirtualinstructor/original/2X/0/083dacca73c00b443f389014e15ce831cc94918e.jpeg) ---

Loved your drawing and listening to the critique. I have some tinted charcoal but haven’t tried yet. Your kitten has inspired me to try! ---

Thank you. I also really appreciate all of Matt’s critiques and have learned so much from them. I had put the tinted charcoal aside for years and never used them. I decided to when there was a chat conversation on Getting Sketchy. I found out that I really like what they added and now just to apply Matt’s recommendations to make bring it to hopefully a better representation.
