Comments by the artist

I really like this drawing. It was rendered with two different types of red chalk, one light orange and one a stronger darker red. This has given some subtle changes to the red tones throughout the drawing. I also used white chalk for the highlights. Perhaps if I had used a slightly darker piece of paper then the white highlights would have been a little stronger. I feel that they are a slightly lost.
