Title
Art Nouveau Face
Artist

Medium
Drawing - White Pencil On Paper
Description
It is always fun to shake things up and use a medium that is opposite of how one usually works. Using a white pencil to draw the highlights instead of a graphite pencil to draw shadows is a great exercise at training one's eye. White pencil on black paper is a dramatic way to do this.
I purchased this plaque at a yard sale and have enjoyed having her elegant face grace a wall in my house. She is much more elegant here. To continue the black and white theme, I have her framed with a larger than normal white mat and a narrow black frame.
