About this work

This sketch shows an older man with wild hair and a beard. He’s standing with his arms raised, like he’s reaching for something. His clothes are loose and simple, and his feet are bare. One hand holds a small object near his face. The drawing is made with quick, sketchy lines—some areas are darker, others barely there. It feels raw and unfinished, like a fast idea turned into art. If you like this style, check out Mel Chin for more of his work.
