Chuck Berry

For my next project I will be sticking with the music legends theme, focusing on one of the pioneers of rock n' roll music Chuck Berry.
For this piece I am going to attempt a charcoal portrait at the larger size of 16 x 20. Having never worked with charcoal before I don't really know what to expect from the outcome but I do know it will be a lot quicker to produce than my pencil drawings so hopefully this should work to my advantage in that, depending on the quality, I will be able to produce more work. I also think the larger format will be more appealing to an audience.
Below is the image I will be attempting. However, I first need to buy some charcoal pencils and a blending tool!
