About this work

This sketch shows a person standing sideways, wearing a loose white shirt and long, dark red pants. The pants have a few small lines near the bottom, like stitching or details. The drawing is simple, with clean lines and no background. The artist focused on the shape and fabric of the pants, especially the way they fit at the ankle. The red color stands out against the light shirt. Next, look up cross-hatching to see how artists create shading with lines.
