Rim Lighting




I've borrowed this drawing from the Drawing Critiques Section. http://forum.portraitartist.com/show...5089#post25089

I'm posting this under the Artificial Lighting category even though I'm wondering if this setup can be achieved with natural light. It intrigues me because I often seem to get this effect unintentionally when I do a light setup in my studio, which usually has a lot of ambient light.

Is it "flattering"? Too "theatrical"? Can anyone post examples (in oil, maybe) of portraits using this lighting setup?
