Critique #3 - The Man with the Pearl Earrings


The Man with the Pearl Earrings

Graphite / Silver and Gold Colored Pencils

Breathe

A parody (VAL) of the girl with the pearl earring, by Vermeer. As an inspiration for my work, Vermeer used perspective and common themes to comment on the social preference of the Netherlander Tradesmen. While I wish I could have done a black background, I feared it would remove detail from the beard and crown.
