Endless First Cry 3 is a drawing made with black chalk by Swiss contemporary artist Guy Oberson. 

This portrait is of a woman whose naked body is depicted lying down and languid. The figure’s position is reminiscent of the illustrative tradition of nude models that include Titian or even Manet. The title of the work suggests an extremely sad emotional state of the woman.

From the start, black chalk has always characterized Guy Oberson's work. It is a drawing tool, similar to charcoal, but the blacks are even more matt and deep, and it requires impeccable control as it is irreversible. These landscapes or portraits drawings are always figurative. The artist works using a model or frequently from a photograph, which can be of a model, that of a known photographer or even an image borrowed from the media. 

Guy Oberson shades the black chalk with a multitude of vertical streaks which alters the perception of the subject, making the interpretation of the artwork far less immediate. The subject is thus taken apart, loosing body, but gains in expressive intensity. The artist draws through the accumulated lines; so that the subjects emerge when they are viewed at a distance but when approached, they start to dissipate.
