About this work

This drawing is a messy web of lines and tiny handwritten notes. It looks like a map of connections—dots and arrows crisscross everywhere, with clusters of words near some lines. The colors are faint, mostly pink and gray, and the whole thing feels like a sketch that grew too big to control. The tiny notes seem to name people and groups, maybe tracking relationships or secrets. It’s not neat or polished—just raw, like a detective’s notes spread out on a table. If you like this kind of visual puzzle, look up cross-hatching.
