About this work

This sketch shows two rough, ghostly figures in faint blue and gray pencil and watercolor. One looks like a seated person with a rounded head, and the other is a twisted, tangled shape on the right. Up top, a small, blurry hand floats in yellow and pink. The paper looks worn, like the artist was still figuring things out. The lines are light, almost erased, and the colors are soft and see-through. If you like this loose, sketchy style, look up *watercolor, glazing*.
