This painting shows a simple, geometric building drawn in black ink on graph paper. The lines are tight and precise, creating a flat, shadowless shape. There’s no color—just black and white squares. The artist used a technique called cross-hatching to build up the lines. It’s like layering pencils to make shadows, but here it’s all ink on paper. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists use lines to create depth.
