This sketch shows a person in a long robe and a pointed hat, walking sideways. The lines are loose and quick, like a hurried sketch. The robe flows around their legs, and one hand rests on their hip. The drawing looks like it was made fast, with light pencil strokes. The artist focused on movement and fabric folds. Next, check out cross-hatching to see how artists build shading with lines.
