Silverpoint Drawing

This goes to my good friend Terri H.
It was drawn with a silver stylus on a specially prepared surface - a drawing medium known as silverpoint. The lines look gray, like pencil, but over time the silver lines will tarnish to a metallic sepia tone.

“Daffodil” was drawn with a silver stylus in a medium known as silverpoint, which was used extensively during the Renaissance era. Tones are built up with layers of lines and much patience. The silver metal lines will tarnish over time to a warm sepia tone.
I prepared the paper with a pale gray-green tone, then used white ink for highlights. To learn more about Silverpoint please visit My Website.
