Charcoal compressed is a type of charcoal material used by artists for drawing and sketching. It is made by compressing high-quality charcoal dust into solid sticks, which results in a hard and dense material that produces strong, dark lines.
This type of charcoal is ideal for creating strong outlines, shading and for capturing fine details in a drawing. It is a popular choice among life drawing artists and students due to its affordability and ease of use. Charcoal compressed sticks are also convenient for warm up sketching as they can be sharpened to a fine point to create fine lines.
