This sketch shows a simple two-story building with a slanted roof. The walls are painted in light yellow and white, with dark circles for windows. One side of the roof is orange-brown, while the other looks weathered and patchy. Below, a messy line of green and brown suggests grass or bushes. The artist used loose, quick brushstrokes—some colors bleed into each other. The roof’s uneven lines and the rough ground make it feel sketchy and unfinished. Look up cross-hatching next to see how artists build texture with lines.
