This piece is a square of paper covered in tiny, repeating lines. The lines are all the same light gray, stacked close together in rows. There’s no clear shape or picture—just a dense, even pattern that fills the whole space. The lines are so tight they almost look like they were drawn by hand over and over. It’s not a landscape or a portrait, but the way the lines overlap creates a kind of texture. Check out how this artist uses cross-hatching.
