This is a powerful scene, and beautifully drawn. You must have alot of patience to do silver point :)

This is excellent - and thanks for the information above. As I remember, Green and Stone's sell holders for silver wire, and the gesso which works particularly well for silverpoint: this is so obviously a medium that suits you that you might as well get all the right equipment. This particular design might have been made for silverpoint - suits it perfectly.

Another silver point drawing. This one on a piece of M.D.F. primed with a Art Spectrum Acrylic primer then with a Golden, gessos ground for silverpoint/ drawing ground. I used this ground on water colour paper nott surface but the finish was a bit unclear as on my Lions so I tryed this. By the way you can use copper or gold to draw with and I have found a penicle holder is quite good for holding the points. Golden sell mounted points so thats easy.This drawing is from aa bar relief carving in the Britsh Museum.
