That means you use "charcoal" as your medium. Or your material of choice.
Rene Magritte (1898 - 1967) was a Belgian painter, printmaker, sculptor, film maker, and photographer who was part of the Surrealist movement. After his death in 1967, Magritte's work did have an influence on Pop artists, such as Andy Warhol, though Magritte himself was not part of that movement. Magritte's most influential and famous works are those that pose a paradox to the viewer, such as The Treachery of Images (1929), which depicts a pipe above the words "ceci n'est pas une pipe" (this is not a pipe), and leave the viewer feeling unnerved. The majority of his paintings often lead the viewer to question the relationship between depiction and language and between reality and what is depicted. Magritte once said that his paintings are "visible images which conceal nothing; they evoke mystery..." To question an image, and reality, was a hallmark of the surrealist movement that Magritte belonged to.

Magritte used normal, everyday items in non-traditional ways. He used lithographs that were duplicated to create his artwork. Magritte's work was often simple, but raised questions about reality.
