FAQs

How do I draw a lump of coal?
Draw an irregular shape with straight broken edges, then divide it into flat facets. Shade most facets dark and leave thin light lines along the edges where they catch the light.
How do I make coal look shiny?
Coal has a dull body with glassy edges. Keep the facets very dark and add a few sharp, thin highlights on the ridges between them.
How do I draw glowing coal?
Keep the outer surface dark and draw the cracks and gaps glowing orange and red. A soft glow around the lump and a dark background make the light stand out.
Can I use a coal drawing for a science project?
Yes. Ask for a clean sample or a simple energy chart with no text, download in HD and add your own labels for a geology or energy report.
What medium suits a coal drawing?
Charcoal and graphite are natural fits for deep blacks and sharp facets. Pastel works best for glowing embers.
Can I make a set of rock and mineral drawings?
Use Style Transfer to hold one look, then draw coal, quartz and other stones in the same medium for a matching chart.
