This sketch is messy and raw. A man sits at a table, looking down. His face is drawn in quick lines, almost like a sketch. The table has a cup, a saucer, and a spoon. Around him are other small drawings—heads, hands, scribbles—glued onto the wood. The paper is old and torn. Handwritten notes in Spanish are stuck on the sides. The whole thing looks like it was made fast, with scraps and watercolor. This style is classic José Luis Cuevas.
