This sketch shows a simple barn and a small wooden shed. The barn has dark, flat walls and a slanted roof, with a few small windows. The shed looks old, with a curved roof and a wheelbarrow leaning against it. The artist used only black and white crayon, making the shapes stand out sharply. The lines are simple and precise, with no extra details. Next, look up chiaroscuro to see how artists use light and shadow.
