About this work

This sketch shows a person standing sideways, wearing a simple white top and wide brown trousers. The trousers have furry cuffs at the bottom, fluffy and dark. The lines are loose and quick, like a first draft. The furry cuffs look almost like animal legs, adding a playful twist to the outfit. The drawing feels like a quick study, not a finished work. If you like this sketch, look up cross-hatching to see how artists build texture with lines.
