Chiaroscuro of the Tender Side

The inner surface of the raised leg and the arm alongside it — light sculpting the soft tissue of the inner thigh and the tender underside of the forearm. The chiaroscuro treats skin as landscape, each tendon and contour rendered with Caravaggesque drama. The adjacency of arm and leg creates visual rhyme.
