Black and White Art

Whether seen in an old movie or a charcoal rendering by an old masters, the focused beauty of an image devoid of colours has always enchanted me.  Building upon subtle layers steps of grays, holding back the  values of pure white and black for only the briefest appearances, allows the modeling of forms and shapes to be fully realized to an almost sculptural, three dimensional effect.
