About this work

This sketch shows just a few loose, quick lines—a hand, a shoulder, and a hint of a face. The drawing is unfinished, with barely any detail beyond simple shapes. The paper is plain, and the lines are light, almost like a first try at capturing someone’s pose. The date *Jan. 1981* is scrawled in the corner, meaning this was made over 40 years ago. It’s not polished, but that might be the point—it feels like a moment frozen in time. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching next.
