These recently discovered 1983-84 oversize pastels on archival papers were created working quickly, in pastel. The series shows the last existing observational drawings prior to the artists switch to working with her non- dominant left hand. This is a rare pastel painting, focused on observed nature This work is based upon a scene in the Brooklyn Botanical gardens As a feminist, Anastasi's main cocentration is presenting other women. Unlike the often objectified male gaze, Anastasi's version of the female classical nude incorporates a modernist sensibility, often with a direct gaze or a palpable sense of interior life.
