I had these drawings framed in a nice grey hand painted frame.  Prices for these range from £375 to £650 Eurydice is sold

For some reason I never tried drawing lace in graphite before. After a little bit of trying I decided I had to draw the 'negative space: the space around the white lace. So I 'drew the holes', thereby leaving the white lace. This is the result. I hope you like it. Petals & Lace, graphite, 38x28cm/15x11"
