Silverpoint is an especially challenging medium, but that is part of the allure, and Williams-Smith has been working with it since 1985. The effect of light on the silver lines creates a shimmering quality that is quite different from any other drawing technique. Williams-Smith uses this medium to capture and empathize the spiritual energy that exists within us all.
