2 3/4" across at bristles

and can find not other like it

Peachy orange on the interior

Quite a lot of effort invested in developing a form that could expand or contract to accommodate a range of measurements

Barred Window, Empty Room, Meticulous Vintage Graphite Drawing penguin figurine 2 3/4" across at bristlesFound in Maine and unsigned, I'd guess this drawing dates to the 1980s or 90s, I would guess an art school drawing, and really quite beautifully executed. Yet while the formal execution is its own accomplishment, for me the effect is to place attention on the character of space itself, with that barred window, particularly, making it feel something of a metaphor. (But of course I see metaphors everywhere!) Paper size 11" x 8 1 2. Very good condition,
