This drawing shows two stacked rectangles. The top one is a plain, empty white shape with a thick black border. Below it, a smaller rectangle is split into three vertical sections—two dark gray and one lighter gray—all framed in black. The lines are simple but precise, almost like a diagram. The gray sections look like they might be made by layering ink or pencil strokes. If you like this kind of clean, geometric art, check out Ellsworth Kelly.
