This sketch shows an older man with a mustache and a cap. He’s wearing a dark coat and light pants, sitting with his hands resting on his lap. The drawing is loose and quick, with soft shading and no sharp lines. The paper looks old and worn, like it’s been handled a lot. The artist used simple strokes to show light and shadow, keeping it rough and unpolished. Next, check out chiaroscuro to see how artists use light and dark to shape faces.
