This sketch shows quick, loose figures in different poses—some standing, some sitting, some lying down. The lines are rough and uneven, with some areas filled in lightly with shading. A few figures look stretched or twisted, while others seem more natural but still simplified. One detail stands out: the way the artist uses overlapping lines to build up shapes, especially in the bigger figures. This isn’t a polished finish—it looks like a study, maybe for a bigger project.
