This sketch shows a woman in a loose, colorful dress with striped sleeves and a patterned shawl. Her skirt has long fringes, and she wears a red hat with a wide brim. One hand points upward, while the other rests on her hip. The drawing looks rough—like a quick study rather than a finished piece. The lines are loose, and the colors are simple but bright. Next, check out cross-hatching to see how artists build texture with lines.
