An original graphite drawing titled “And God Created Woman” (2011) by the late Jamaican artist Howard Moo Young.

This striking figurative work presents a powerful interpretation of the female form, rendered with exceptional precision, tonal depth, and balance. Moo Young’s mastery of graphite is evident in the smooth gradation, anatomical accuracy, and subtle interplay of light and shadow throughout the composition.

Set against a tranquil seascape, the figure conveys both strength and serenity – making the piece visually compelling while maintaining a refined, timeless quality.

Presented in a clean black frame, ready to hang.

A standout addition for collectors of Caribbean art or those seeking a sophisticated, statement-making work.
