Close to home Statue Sirkka Jalava

I have in my bookcase a statue, white, ca 20 cm high, which may be Sokrates, this ancient filosof in Greece. Why not - I thought at my morning tea, I can try to draw him with a pencil.  I placed the statue so that the light came behind him from two directions. The face were then in the shadow but had a little light indirectly.  I liked to draw this statue. Now I think I should have use coal too. But that would be another story...
