Basic composition of still life is presented as a combination of objects and light source. The horizon line is slightly above the middle of the ball and the vanishing points are far to the left and right. That is the main reason why this picture is considerate two point perspective drawing. The tree dimensional forms are produced as a shade of the light sources and the hue of the shadows produced by the objects.The focal point as presented is the ball with drapery. By strokes leading from the shadow to the light, that express the volume in gradually changing the value of the shades. Technique of layering gave the drapery wrinkles more realistic look. The reflected light at the corners of the drapery is essential for former representation of deeper 3 dimensional illusion. The texture produced by charcoal smudging adds polished look. The drop shadow cast from the composition and the background are intentionally created by uneven use of the long side of the charcoal. The raw effect helps focusing the eye on the main object - the ball in drapery.
