This image shows a black pot holding a small plant with long, thin leaves. The pot sits on a flat surface, and the whole scene is drawn over with looping, curved ink lines that overlap each other. The background is plain, so the focus stays on the pot and the lines. The ink lines look like they’re tracing the shape of the pot and plant, almost like a puzzle. The artist used a simple setup but turned it into something more complex with those extra marks. Want to see more work like this? Check out Gerald Hayes.
