Greetings to you and your little artist, Jacob!
Chiaroscurist pertains to a painter who uses light and shade rather than color to create an illusion of volume. They are skilled at creating dramatic effects of contrasts between light and dark. Some famous chiaroscurist painters are Leonardo da Vinci, Caravaggio, and Rembrandt.
It can be pronounced as /ki-ar-uh-skyoor-ist/.
