This drawing looks like a crowd of people packed together. The shapes are simple—just clusters of dots and lines forming heads and bodies. Some figures lean into each other, while others stretch upward. The whole scene is in shades of gray, with no clear background. The artist used quick, sketchy strokes to fill the space, almost like scribbles. The figures don’t have faces or details—just a mix of shapes that feel busy and crowded. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching next.
