What's in your egg?

1. white drawing sheet A5 
2. charcoal
3. yellow sheet for background 
4. hairspray

Surprise!
Imagine you crack your egg on Easter Sunday and it turns out to contain something completely different than egg white and egg yolk ... Draw this fantasy with charcoal on a white sheet. 

Practice first 
Never worked with charcoal? Then practice on a scrap paper first. 

Draw lines, blur them by swiping with your fingers, create shadows, erase the charcoal with a kneaded eraser. Charcoal stains quickly, so clean your  fingers regularly.

1. Draw two halves of an egg. 
2. Draw in between what you imagine is in the egg.  
3. Draw the surrounding. 
4. Fix your drawing with hairspray.
