This drawing shows a single tree with thick, twisting branches spreading across the page. The lines are bold and scratchy, almost like ink on paper, with no color—just black and white. In the background, a few small shapes hint at a landscape, but the tree dominates the whole scene. The artist focused on the tree’s raw, uneven lines, making it look alive and tangled. The way the branches spread out feels almost chaotic, yet balanced. If you like this style, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art for more works like it.
