About this work

This looks like three old, torn pages stuck in a cardboard box. The pages are brown and smudged, with dark lines and text that’s hard to read. Shadows and shapes blend together, making it feel like something’s hiding in the mess. The text on the pages is a mix of quotes and handwritten notes, but it’s faded. The edges of the paper are singed, like they’ve been burned. The whole thing feels rough and unfinished. If you like this style, check out the technique: scumbling.
