A study of a standing nude with her hands clasped beneath her chin This is another example of Tony Bartl's genius for capturing a nude in pencil. Here, a single pencil line has captured an image of charm, elegance and grace with an apparent ease that makes me jealous of his ability. I am left wondering how he did it and why can't I!
