Untitled is a 1958 by Geoffrey Clarke, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This sketch shows a simple, rough drawing of a ship on a flat surface. The lines are uneven, almost like quick scribbles, with dark marks scattered around it. The ship looks basic—just a mast, sails, and a hull—but the drawing feels loose and unfinished. The artist used a simple method: dark lines piled on top of each other in some spots, making the image look patchy. It’s not polished, but that might be the point. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching next.
A black-and-white drawing by Geoffrey Clarke from 1958 depicts a crucifix, with scattered ink traces visible on the paper.
