About this work

This drawing looks like quick, rough lines in gray on white paper. It shows two shapes that sort of look like a sailboat, but they’re made of wobbly, uneven strokes. Some parts are dark, others are faint, and the whole thing feels a little messy. The artist used crayon on clear plastic, which makes the lines look light and scratchy. It’s not trying to be perfect—just fast and loose. If you like this style, check out Giorgio Cavallon.
