Inktober 27/ Chiaroscuro by TristanAlexander

Inktober 27/ Chiaroscuro

TristanAlexander

This was an experiment, I did a half black and half white page then added black and white to it to make this image. Chiaroscuro in art is the use of strong contrasts between light and dark, usually bold contrasts affecting a whole composition. Inktober 27, "Chiaroscuro", 7 1/2 x 9, Micron pen and white gel pen on black and white paper. Prints available.

      Actually it would have been better had I just stippled the whole thing and not tried the half black half white paper,,,but it was an experiment!

          NO I did that, I cut a piece of black in half and glued it to the white.

    The effect is amazing! Love the pointilism you used here, that's hard work and you made a great job with it!
