Featured Nude drawing- comments please

Hi all,wasn’t sure if this was a print/hand signed print or original drawing. But using a magnifying glass I now think is’s an original drawing? I read the signature as Peter Cleyents? (But couldn’t find anything onlne) There’s a imprint stamp/seal nearby the top righthand corner. But is this a original drawing? I was thinking it is very skilful. Artwork size 48x35cm. Thank you for any comments and keep well

 

I think it is meant to be Peter Clements, with some elaboration. The T also has a long downward line.

It is excellent quality.

 

Great!Many thanks AJ. You must be correct. I see there’s indeed an pencil artist named Peter Clements

 

The emboss is for the art paper maker
Possibly Hammer...? I would expect this to be an original piece as it looks like a student work from a long pose in a model drawing class.

 

Thank you for the comment and information the emboss. I note there’s a Peter Clements linked to a Pencil Nude gallery. Unfortunately I can’t open his website. I would like to e-mail him.

Thanks!

 

Mr Clements was kind enough to send me a friendly response.
He also noted that he was glad to see the work again. Interesting his comment regarding the dating of his artwork.

‘I do not know the exact year, but it must be a least 18 years ago. Approximately 2007.

I have a philosophy about dating my art . We read from left to right. The left being the start and the right is the finish. Most artists sign on the right, implying they have finished the study. There's I sign on the left, implying the study is timeless, it will live on. There is no end’

 

Very nice response, thank you for the update.

 

so he signs on the left....... with the idea that dating his work is somehow limiting ..

Strange bugger !

Thanks for the reveal @Boland ...!

 

Too interesting! Thank you for sharing.
