La Bamba

This is a portrait of a tribal woman wearing a mask.This work highlights her detailed facial expressions and her coronet. The black ink pen on white paper creates the required depth and the lovely natural light and shadow .The mask on her eye is created using poster colour and charcoal stick. Conscientious work is put on the face and palm, by using a form of art called Stippling. In Stippling an image is created by very many small monochromatic dots spaced appropriately to generate the illusion of space, depth and shadow. This is a high quality pointillism piece and done with a 0.3 or 0.005inch nib pen
