This is a black-and-white portrait of a person with a large, curly hairstyle pulled up high. The face is dark, almost solid black, with a serious expression. They’re wearing a fur collar that looks soft and textured. The artist used different tools—charcoal, crayon, and paint—to create this piece. The fur looks almost like it’s made of tiny strokes, giving it a fuzzy feel. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching next.
