Untitled is a 1964 graphite by Lee Lozano, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows two giant, exaggerated hands holding a long, red object that looks like a tool or weapon. The hands are rough and dark, almost like shadows, while the red thing has quick, messy strokes. The background is just light lines and scribbles—no extra details. The red object’s jagged edges and bold color make it stand out against the hands. The artist used quick, uneven marks, almost like scribbling, to fill in the shapes. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching next—it’s a drawing technique that uses lots of parallel lines to create shading.
