A favourite pose

The foetal pose from behind has always been a favourite of mine, I don’t know why. Looking back through many pictures, I have drawn it again and again. The first one here goes back about four weeks, the others stretch back at least 10 years if not more, I have lost the dates.

Charcoal and pencil
