This painting shows wispy blue lines on a light background. The lines look like tall, thin plants or maybe cracks in ice. Some lines are thick, others fade out. A few small shapes near the center look like tiny broken pieces. The artist used ink on a special paper. The lines don’t form anything you’d recognize—just shapes that feel light and airy. Check out cross-hatching next to see how artists build up lines like this.
