Old Ballet Shoe Ribbons in Charcoal
The satin of an old ballet shoe is burnished by charcoal, the worn toe and the ribbon knot kept in the foreground.
✍️ The charcoal shadows must not swallow the satin stitching, and the highlights need not be filled in as a solid white area. The direction of the ribbons gives the picture its variation in weight, and the wear is concentrated at the points that actually bear stress.
