Holding Pattern is an academic figure drawing rendered in graphite on lightly marbled parchment paper. The figure folds inward, arms wrapped around legs in a pose that feels both protective and self-contained. Soft tonal shifts and detailed shading bring focus to the tension and tenderness held within the curled posture.

The drawing measures 8.5 × 11 inches and arrives unframed, ready for customization to suit your space.
