Silverpoint Face of a Woman

This is silverpoint #50 in the series:


Face of a Woman, 2009, silverpoint on prepared card, 11" x 8.5".

I still have a few sheets of card ready with white gesso, so there may be a few more striclty monochrome silverpoints to come. However, my next step is to mix a little pigment in with the ground, to create a tonal base that can be highlit with touches of white, which should make for a slightly more interesting series. Hope to do this soon.
