This drawing shows a strange, geometric building made of sharp angles and flat shapes. The lines are dark and precise, creating a tower-like form with a hollow center. Some sections have tiny dots packed closely together, while others are just clean lines. The artist used a simple pencil on colored paper, giving it a quiet, sketchy feel. The building looks almost like a puzzle—no curves, just straight edges meeting at odd points. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching to see how artists build shapes with lines.
