Creating drawings of
this type is very intriguing, as the basic technique is almost
opposite that of a usual sketch. Here, the ground of the paper must
be used as the shadow, rather than the highlight. It is the density
and strength of the pencil that determines the brightness of the
glow. Because I have purposefully left the white charcoal unblurred
and unblended, you may see in the details the myriad of tiny lines
that form the face's shapes and expressions.
