This is a loose, sketchy portrait of a face with a hood pulled up. The eyes are bright blue and staring, the lips painted a bold red. The hair is drawn in quick, dark strokes, and the skin is just a faint pink wash. The artist left most of the paper blank, focusing only on the face and hood. The style feels fast and rough, like a quick study rather than a polished work. If you like this kind of sketchy style, look up Dan McCarthy.
