Graphite and Chalk Chiaroscuro Portrait Drawing Final Form



This is the drawing in it's final form. Graphite and Chalk on Canson toned pastel paper. The paper has a textured side and a smooth side. I used the smooth side. 6B is the darkest pencil I used for this. I am always shy about going too dark. This drawing is not matted yet. This image is just the drawing with a pre-cut matte held up to it. I'm not at all sure how I want to display this but I am leaning towards a wider matte ultimately.
