A pencil drawing of a reclining nude woman resting on a couch with her arms raised and her head leaning on her left hand. The artwork captures the soft shading and detailed lines to emphasize the form and relaxed posture of the figure. The couch features ornate curves, adding an elegant touch to the composition.
A pencil drawing of a seated nude female figure resting her chin on her hand, with her elbow propped on the back of a chair. The artwork captures the play of light and shadow on her body and the chair, emphasizing the form and posture of the figure.
Illustration of two seated nude figures with their backs to the viewer, one with long dark hair, on a vibrant orange rug with intricate geometric patterns. The artwork uses a limited color palette, emphasizing the contours and shadows of the human form.
A sepia-toned sketch of two nude female figures seated on steps, with the figure on the left resting her chin on her hand and the one on the right with her hand on her thigh, both in contemplative poses.
