About this work

This sketch shows four stick-like figures walking. Their clothes are bright colors—yellow, blue, black—with simple shapes. The background is a smudgy gray. One figure wears a hat, another holds something in their hand. The artist used quick, loose lines. It looks like they were drawing fast, almost like a doodle. The colors pop against the gray.
