This piece is an example of silverpoint. The values in a silverpoint work are created by using a thin wire that is held by a cylinder-shaped holder. The artist must slowly build up scratches overtime, in order to created darker values. The greater the etching or scratching, the darker the value. This medium is challenging because it cannot be erased and it takes a long time.
The medium is pencil/pen and the different values were achieved by shading in darker areas dark and light areas lighter.this makes it challenging because with pencil/pen there can always over go with it
Form is actual, three-dimensional shape, though it is often used to describe the illusion of three-dimensionality, as well. Like shape, form can be geometric or organic.
