Untitled is a 2003 graphite by Jeff Davis, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image depicts a sketch of a skull, with two figures positioned on either side. The skull is rendered in blue, while the figures are drawn in red. One figure appears to be pushing the skull, while the other is seated on top of it. The background of the image is a soft yellow hue, which provides a subtle contrast to the bold lines and colors of the skull and figures. The overall effect is one of simplicity and elegance, with the artist's use of colored pencil creating a sense of depth and texture. If you're interested in learning more about the artist's technique, you might want to explore the concept of cross-hatching.
