This was a difficult decision. I'd like to fancy myself a versatile artist, but I definitely feel that there are some strengths and weaknesses in my artmaking. If you had asked me this question in high school, I would say that my favorite is by far pencil.
Now, however, I really enjoy charcoal. I think this is because I really enjoy life drawing, and most of my classes in college used charcoal when we were drawing people. I love that it can be altered and adjusted easily. I also enjoy the feel of getting your fingers involved, not just the point of a drawing tool. I love the deep, rich shades and the delicate lights that can be achieved. Overall, charcoal rocks! (imho)
