About this work

This sketch shows two figures tangled together in a rough, messy style. The lines are thick and uneven, almost like scribbled charcoal. One figure is on top, twisted and tangled, while the other lies sprawled below, arms and legs tangled in the chaos. The artist used a lot of dark shading with only a few light spots to show depth. It looks like they worked fast, letting the strokes stay raw instead of smoothing them out. Next, check out the technique: impasto to see how artists build up thick paint like this.

About the artist

Artist

Theoharis Mores

This guy painted the same blank word—*Άτιτλο*, Greek for “Untitled”—over and over, as if he couldn’t be bothered to invent new titles.
