In ancient times, a combination of charcoal with calcium carbonate powder called marble dust, also known as ‘charcoal’, was used to draw on canvas. This method of design was popular among Kamal al-Mulk’s students and is still very popular today. Because charcoal is thicker, blacker, and smoother than pencil, design is a unique experience, and it can create super-realistic and emotional designs. On the other hand, charcoal can be used in the form of a pencil, in which case it is an effective tool for designing, shading, hatching and creating large size paintings.
