Flowers and Butterflies

This Still life of flowers and butterflies was created using a mixed medium of charcoal and conte on a dark stained background. This drawing began as a line drawing on toned paper, tonal values are used in the composition to bring values of light and dark and the tone of the paper itself serves as a middle ground between light and dark.

The subdued color of the conte creates a serene atmosphere and a subtle contrast with the charcoal butterflies, it also draws the eye in towards the shadowy elements of the composition.
