About this work

This drawing is all black lines on white paper. You see tangled shapes that look like animals or maybe plants—some have spirals, others have jagged edges. A few figures seem to be crawling or climbing, but it’s hard to tell. The lines are loose and sketchy, like they were drawn fast. The artist signed it "C.D." and dated it 2/10/2011. The lines are thick in some spots and faint in others, which is typical of prints made with metal plates. Look up etching to see how artists like this make these kinds of prints.
