About this work

This drawing is made with pencil on notebook paper. It's simple, with lines and shapes. The drawing is interesting because it was made during a time when the artist was exploring his thoughts and ideas, and this piece is a reconstruction of a lost version. The artist was trying to be aware of his thoughts and feelings while making this. He wanted to show how his mind worked. This makes the drawing special. You can learn more about this style by looking into the technique of cross-hatching.
