    Is it behind glass? Anything on the reverse? We always ask for a picture of the whole back, whether you think there is something there or nnot.

    It is behind Glass & there is nothing on the back
    But as you say you might see something that I do not see
    I will post a picture of the reverse
    Thanks

    I agree Holly. Seems to be a portion of a larger image.

    And by an "artist" who has no understanding of the female anatomy. :rolleyes:

    Given the way the mat and the work look in the first image posted, I sincerely doubt that this an original drawing and not a print of some kind.

    So there we have it - the back always reveals something important.

    I guess the term Full Figured is not PC, but I don’t think it’s insulting, so I’ll call her that. :hilarious:

    I have no idea what the painter was thinking, every part of her anatomy is out of balance. Her eyes, her mouth, her chest, her hands and wrists, even some of her nails look like they are sliding off her fingers.
    No one is perfectly symmetric, but this is Picasso-esque without meaning to be Cubist. I find it somewhat disturbing.

    I sincerely hope whoever painted it doesn't see our critique.:bag:

    I wondered why she had one breast on top of the other or if she was carrying some kind of shoulder bag.

    Yes, you may want to deframe it to see if you can find additional information.
