I painted this back when I was doing GCSE art as part of a chiaroscuro theme, therefore I was focusing on the light and dark and where the light hits. This is one of my older pieces where I first began to gain my technical skills and it holds a special place in my heart. Chiaroscuro is an artistic technique that uses strong contrast between light and shadow, as seen in renaissance artists such as Da Vinci, Caravaggio, and Rembrandt.
