Completing the Drawing

Roll a corner of your eraser into a point, and use it to draw precise highlights - here, the lip of the jug, and the edge of the handle, as well as the line around the neck of the jug. The background has been heavily erased, and shadows added. Note how black some of the dark areas are - don't be tentative with your charcoal - take advantage of those velvety darks for a dramatic effect.
