A Pastel Painting of a Seated Nude Signed by the Artist Circa, 1987 The central figure is a nude woman seated in a simple wooden chair. She is viewed from a side profile, with her head turned away from the viewer. Her hair is short and curly. A piece of draped fabric hangs over the back of the chair and partially covers her lap. She is holding what appears to be a hand mirror in her right hand, but her reflection is not visible. The style is realistic but expressive, with strong lines and visible shading used to create form and texture. The background is loosely sketched, contrasting with the more detailed rendering of the figure. A signature is visible in the bottom right corner, which reads "1-1-87" along with the artist's name.
