Subverting a drawing

One of my birthday presents was a box of tinted charcoal. I set about tinting my existing charcoal drawings and now I’m addicted.
With my new tinted charcoal pencils I executed this drawing amongst others. This one is from a landscape view of Bath across the bridge by the train station.
My friend thought it resembled a woman’s open thighs… he is not wrong. I can be a bit subversive at times.
The cluster of houses and green lush tapestry blankets nest amongst two robust fertile hills and hence forth and in between them the waters flow!
