VERY EXCITING NEWS! I am selling my proof and tester bookmarks and cards. I ALSO have the STAGE PRINTS BACK!!!! So they are available (check photos for pricing). 🧡Profits for the proofs are going to the chosen charities/rescues:
Princess Alice Hospice & HART Wildlife Rescue and Forever Animals Rescue Uk
Message ASAP to secure yours. These are testers so I may not be sticking with the print company or may be changing things, but it's a shame to let them go to waste, so let's raise some money!!!
Thanks, Charlie Hart ###x

I got a few sneaky test print of a few bookmarks. Some of the designs haven't quite worked and this isn't the company I'd stick with, but doesn't he look cute 🥰🥰💕💕

Pencil at the ready 💪🏻💪🏻
What is your favourite 'farm' animal??
I hope your week is kind. Thanks for the ongoing support x Charlie

I wasn't sure I was going to share this... It's my Nugget who passed away this year 🙏🧡 I had some Blush Lokta paper to draw on, even though I knew the texture would be challenging... I'm SO glad I did. It's such beautiful handmade paper and drawing Nugget felt cathartic.
💕
I did fight with the paper, it was super hard. I HAD to be gentle otherwise you damage the surface easily
So no, this isn't my most detailed work, nor does it have the tonal dimensions. But it holds so much meaning to me 🧡
So I'm sharing it with you xx

Happy Snoot Saturday!!! They can be shiny & smooth and sometimes rough & bumpy. Each little nose is different. I always analyse first, and work out what 'look' we are going for by texture analysis.
The cow nose for example was nearly smooth, however the Boxer nose was rough and super textured/dense. I love drawing noses ☺️☺️☺️
I hope you like these!!

🟡SOLD 🟡 Evlin graphite hare on Bristol Board. She is off to her new home shortly. Which is very exciting. I draw and then 90% of my work goes in a cuboard, never to be seen again 😂🙄 I'm terrible. So it's great that she is getting a new live out of the cuboard, where I know she'll be appreciated 👌❤️

Drawing.... COMPLETE!!!!!! 🥳 This was brilliant to do. I was worried when I saw the picture with the mouth open, I was apprehensive. But I learnt a lot. I focused on trying to achieve the thick luscious fur as well. And I'm happy with the results
I really hope you like this and everyone's week has been kind
❤️ ANY support is gratefully received, so thank you so much ###x

I've got Pastel pencils but no idea how to use them. So I've got overwhelmed and not touched them. UNTIL TODAAAAAY💪🎉 I followed a tutorial and had lots of fun.
It was tempting to get hung up on it being really good, and getting everything right. But that's the absolute opposite to the intended objective which is just to learn and try stuff out.
Anyway, here she is. A little giraffe face ✨🦒

WIP 1 : Pet Portrait commission for a person I haven't known very long but their beautiful dog is clearly their best friend and it's been a pleasure drawing her.

Today I needed to step away from detailed work. So I got out 3 inks (Cyan blue, yellow and magenta) and just had a bit of a relax. I've never used them before so it was simply to have some art freedom without stress.
So here it is. You don't have to be the best. You don't have to know what you're doing. Just be free 😁

🎊FRIDAY'S NEWS: I have a new look!! 👀 I have changed my logo, business cards and supportive material.
Why? : Because I'd like to invest in the artwork I create, and the message I am sending out.
For most of my art journey, I have disliked every single thing I've created. And this is something I've been working on.
So I hope you enjoy the new look - especially if you purchase from me and see the new leaflets!

💙 Thank you for all of the support you give. I will be doing a daily news update each day, for a week!! So keep an eye out for some news and opportunities 💙 love you guys ###x

Scratchboard WIP : It's nice to move away from graphite at the moment. Today I'd like to get the curve started on the side of this zebra. 🤩 This is made up of tiny scratches, made with an injection needle, against a Indian Ink board.
I'll definitely run prints of this guy once he's done!! Hopefully I'll finish it this month. Which is a push 💪🦓
What do you think of Scratchboard? Some say you cant get shades or it's not as effective as graphite. But I really love it 🖤🤍🩶

Keep an eye out for some upcoming exciting changes to CharlieH.Artist I will be updating people over the coming week on some news, print information and some small changes. There might even be a commission opportunity too 👀
Guesses are welcome and I hope you are all well. Thanks for continued support xx
Lots of love, Charlie

Thanks for all of the support with this one, it's been challenging to say the very least. These pencils are very different to use than usual ones. 🥴😵‍💫
