CHIAROSCURA

Sample portrait drawing. Graphite and some pastel on paper. 22 x 26". Chiaroscura is one of the most talented artist/poet nowadays. I attempted to capture some of her brilliance through her enormous physical beauty. Even though I have portrayed many personalities, I was specially enraptured by this simple drawing.
