Untitled is a 2006 ink by Lisa Yuskavage, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows a woman’s back and side, her hair wild and tangled like vines. She’s holding a big bouquet of flowers—some look real, others twist into strange, almost face-like shapes. The lines are loose and messy, like someone scribbled fast but didn’t care about perfection. The flowers aren’t just decoration; some have human-like features, mixing beauty with something eerie. The whole thing feels raw and unfinished, almost like a dream. If you like this style, check out lithography to see how artists use it to create loose, sketchy prints.
