This sketch shows two people hugging. One wears a hat. Their faces are big and simple. The lines are loose and fast, like they were drawn in a hurry. The background has faint shapes—maybe buildings or trees. The artist used thick, dark lines to show the bodies. The paper has some smudges, like the paint was still wet when it dried. This style feels raw and quick. Look up Candido Portinari next to see more of his work.
