This painting shows two blurry, overlapping figures with scribbled words and shapes all around them. The colors are mostly pale—off-white, light brown—and the lines are rough, like quick sketches. The figures look like they’re holding hands, but their faces and bodies are hard to make out. The words and marks seem random, almost like a secret code. The artist used different tools—pencil, marker, and paint—to layer everything together. Next, check out Dove Bradshaw to see how other works look.
