Original Figure Drawing By George Johanson Signed 1967 Listed Oregon Artist

Description: This is a wonderful treasure of a piece. It's a charcoal drawing of a nude woman by Oregon artist George Johanson. The piece is signed and dated 1967. It's matted and framed behind glass and measures 24.5"x30.5" to the outside edges of the frame. The piece itself is very powerful with bold strokes which give it a great sense of movement. The frame is a 1" painted black wood material that allows the drawing to be the focus. Please look over all photos for details as this piece is being sold as is. But please keep in mind that I'm having to shoot through glass and reflections are difficult to avoid. Feel free to message with questions and thanks for looking. I've also copied the artists biography from his website and pasted it below.
