Title: Seated Nude Male Figure Sketch in Pencil on Paper
By Minty Ramsey
Signed verso

Description:
This expressive pencil study by British contemporary artist Minty Ramsey depicts a nude male figure seated in a relaxed, grounded pose. With the torso angled slightly to one side and both hands resting at the hips, the figure conveys a natural sense of balance and presence typical of live life-drawing sessions. Ramsey’s work frequently explores the subtleties of posture and the emotional tone of the human form, and this drawing demonstrates her instinctive approach to capturing weight, stillness, and gesture.
Rendered in pencil on textured artist paper, the piece combines loose, gestural line work with more defined marks around the shoulders, arms, and legs. Ramsey uses quick strokes to map out the structure of the limbs, while delicate shading across the torso introduces depth without over-modelling the figure. The slightly elevated angle of the head and the calm, introspective expression contribute to the impression of a moment held in time.
Seated poses have long played a central role in figure drawing, offering artists the opportunity to study angles, compression, and the interplay between relaxed and active muscle groups. This drawing aligns with that classical tradition while maintaining Ramsey’s contemporary immediacy — emphasising the spontaneity and honesty of direct observation.
Ideal for collectors of male nude drawings, figurative studies, gesture sketches, and contemporary British pencil work, this piece provides a strong example of the artist’s commitment to expressive, process-driven figurative practice. Unframed and ready for bespoke presentation, it would sit beautifully within a curated collection of life-drawing works.
