James Bone Nude on a Wicker Recliner Drawing on Collage, 1998 vintage sensu but it's definitely got some

but it's definitely got some years on it

has a great form and features what I believe is its original brown paint

dating to the 1950s or so I believe

To me, the best drawings seem effortless,
