This sketch shows three wavy lines in a top box and three curved shapes in a middle box, all drawn on graph paper. Below, there’s another set of three curved lines in a smaller box. The lines are made with pencil and ballpoint pen, and the paper has a grid background. The artist used simple shapes and tight spaces, almost like a puzzle. The lines and circles look deliberate but also a little rough, as if quickly sketched. Check out more by Lee Lozano to see how she played with basic forms.
