Willow Charcoal

Hues Art Supply offers premium willow charcoal made from natural willow branches, prized for its rich, velvety blacks and smooth application. Softer than vine charcoal, willow produces deeper tones and blends effortlessly for expressive shading and dynamic sketches. While vine charcoal—made from grapevine stems—creates lighter, more delicate lines ideal for preliminary work, willow is the artist’s choice for bold marks and dramatic contrasts. Perfect for life drawing, studies, and tonal exploration, willow charcoal delivers classic results with a natural feel.
