About this work

This sketch shows a face drawn in quick, loose pencil lines. The hair is wavy, almost like curls, and the eyes are big and round. The mouth is small, and the neck is drawn in a few simple strokes. The paper has a light, slightly yellowish tone. The artist used light shading to show shadows under the eyes and around the nose. The lines are uneven, giving the drawing a rough, sketchy feel. Try looking up *cross-hatching* to see how artists build shading with lines.
