	Silverpoint - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Silverpoint predates the use of graphite as a drawing medium and was used by old masters such as Leonardo da Vinci, Albrecht Durer and Jan Van Eyck.
		Silverpoint has made a renaissance in the 1990's with the resurgence of drawing as an artistic end in itself.

	Hirschl & Adler, Nancy Lawton: Drawings in Sterling Silver (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Silverpoint as a drawing technique was ubiquitous in Renaissance Europe.
		Her evolution continues: in some of the most recent silverpoints featured in this exhibition, Lawton adds acrylic color-either as discrete local accents, or as a general background tone-to complement the subtle metallic-gray tone of the silver line.
		In the confines of this small-scale drawing, Lawton deftly combines the fine-line nature of silverpoint, seen in her son's face and hair, and in the white petals of the calla lilies, with graphite's bold fl, and punctuates the whole with accents of local color.

		Although it is true that the process of creating a silverpoint drawing in the way of the "Old Masters" is time-consuming, the end result is well worth the effort.
