About this work

This drawing shows a dark, abstract figure with flowing lines and curves. The figure is made up of many layers of pencil and colored pencil marks, with some areas more detailed than others. The background is a light tan color, which helps the darker figure stand out. The drawing is very expressive and dynamic, with lots of energy and movement. It's hard to tell what the figure is doing or what it's supposed to be, but it's definitely eye-catching.
