What is a silverpoint?
Silverpoint drawing is literally drawing with silver, usually a
silver wire on a "ground" which is a mixture of white pigment
and rabbit skin glue; this mixture is painted on the drawing
surface in several coats and sanded between each layer.
It is the most common type of metal point drawing; other
metals used are gold, copper and brass.
Drawing with metal has been used for many centuries prior to
the common usage of the lead pencil.
It is a very sensitive medium, wonderful for conveying delicate
images and extremely durable. Silverpoint lends itself to
spontaneous drawing and careful planning, partly because
erasure is difficult. It is an interesting process in that silver
will mark the pigment-glue ground but will not make a mark
on untreated surfaces. The pressure applied does not change
the value (darkness) of the line; dark areas are made by
placing lines closer together or cross-hatching.
Silver does not smudge like graphite and the pigment-glue
ground converts paper to a very durable surface. Silver and
other metals tarnish with age, darkening and changing color,
leaving the surface with a beautiful patina.
I have made silverpoint drawings since graduate school and
they are exhibited internationally. My art work, including
silverpoints, is found in over 100 collections, both public and
private in the USA, Great Britain, Mexico and Canada.
