This sketch shows a child’s face with big, round eyes and a serious look. The hair is dark and messy, and the kid wears a blue shirt with yellow sleeves. The colors are flat and simple, with no shading except for a few dark smudges around the head. The painting looks like it was done quickly, with loose brushstrokes and uneven lines. The background is just plain paper, so all the focus stays on the face. Next, check out the Museum of Ethnography to see more works like this.
