About this work

This sketch shows a face and hands tangled in lines, like something caught in motion. The word "PASSING" is stamped in bold red near the top, and "BELLS" is stamped below. The drawing is rough and uneven, with dark ink and some light shading. The words might hint at a deeper meaning—maybe about sound or time—but it’s not clear just from looking. The artist used a mix of scratchy lines and smooth patches, which gives it a raw feel. If you like this style, look up etching to see how artists create prints like this.
