Female Figure c. 1937

Al Curry's "Female Figure" (c. 1937) is a watercolor drawing depicting a stylized, almost totemic, wooden figure seated beneath a tree. The figure is depicted in a simplified, almost abstract manner, and the tree is composed of geometric, leaf-like shapes. The artist, known for his innovative approach to design, has incorporated a recurring theme in his work - the depiction of figures surrounded by or within nature. The drawing's meticulous detail and warm color palette give it an air of serene, almost ritualistic, beauty.
