In William Kentridge's drawings, you can see the theater influences that he includes in them that come from his love of theater. He also interests in linking drawing to film which shows in his graphic style characters in his drawings and his method of creating his film. Almost like stop frame animation he will take a photo of a drawing and then erase it and change the drawing slightly and then taking another picture of the changed drawing, continuing this until the scene has finished and when the photos are put together they create the film and a animated drawing. 
Kentridge's style of drawing is very loose using drawing materials such as charcoal and graphite he is able to create drawings with a range of depths, and different line qualities to them. I like how he uses the same drawing for his film animations and erases parts of the drawing to change it, i think that it allows the film to show how the drawing has been edited and changed because of some of the visible lines that haven't been removed properly. I like the rough finish to his work.
