This drawing shows a face looking up, surrounded by messy lines of text. The words are crammed in tight, overlapping each other. The face is simple, with big eyes and dark hair. The whole thing feels crowded and a little chaotic. The text looks like it’s cut and pasted from different sources. The artist’s name is signed in the corner. It’s not a clean, polished look—more like a collage. Look up cross-hatching next to see how artists build up lines to create shapes.
