NOTE - This piece is unsigned, but based on all of the evidence listed below, it is safe to attribute it to Gary Peter Slipper. See lots #202, #203 and #204.

Original ink drawing of what looks to be a lady in a mirror or frame by Gary Peter Slipper RCA (1934-2019). The study for this piece appears to have been done on the backside of the paper. This is a very early work for Gary Peter Slipper, from his limited time in Hamilton (1960-1965). This piece is signed Slipper and dated 1963. I measures 14 3/4" x 9 3/4" overall, with the artwork measuring 10 3/4" x 6".

Something fun to note : Even though this one had the same framing as the others and was done on the same paper, I wanted to remove the backing to look for evidence to make sure it was correct to attribute it to Gary Peter Slipper. When I did that, I saw this really neat bit of practice that was done on the backside.  One looks like it may be practice for what ended up being the finished piece on the front and other looks like a bust on a stand. 

 Below is an amended biography of Gary Peter Slipper.
