Whenever I feel artsy, I like to draw in charcoal on newsprint paper. When I can't draw from life I put a reference pic on my computer screen and just draw from that. For faces, classic Hollywood shots are great for really good lighting. I used a small blurry jpg of Jane Seymour I found online for reference on this one though.
The thing about charcoal is that if forces you NOT to get all noodley and tight with the drawing because it's just a fat burnt stick, not a nice sharp pencil!
