Proud Female Nude (Ink)-
This figure study work was produced with pencil on newsprint, then outlined with india ink and a sable brush. The figure is poised and seated, and the profile is simplified along with the curves of the body. I will probably pastel and paint the drawing at a later time, but I wanted to conserve the original study work, for it has a nice subtle and delicate expression of the female form. It is reminiscent of a Matisse. The dimensions of the work are 17in. X 11in. It was produced in 2008.
