Reclining Figure with Hand

I enjoy this drawing.  The placement on the page is fun.  But what I like the most is her hand.  The abbreviated marks define it nicely.  For me, it is the magic corner of the piece.

At the Yonce Farm 9.75 x 8.25 inches, pastel on paper Copyright 2009, John A. Brecht, All rights reserved This drawing was done using monochromatic pastel on grey Bogus Paper. It was done from a painting. The three trees are a compelling group, drawing me back to this location repeatedly. They are emphasized here in a distilled fashion, largely from being drawn from a painting.

Variation on Chafee Lane 12 x 8 inches, pastel on paper Copyright 2010, John A. Brecht, all rights reserved This is a pastel study of my painting, "On Chafee Lane." I did three versions. With each variation the key elements became more evident. The drawing guided me.
