This sketch shows a boy in old-fashioned clothes holding a bowl, feeding a goat. The goat stands on a raised platform, its head turned toward the boy. The lines are loose and quick, like a rough draft. The boy’s hat has a flat brim and a rounded top, and the goat’s horns curve backward. The drawing feels unfinished, with light pencil strokes and some smudges. If you like this sketchy style, look up cross-hatching next.
