This sketch shows four nude figures in quick, loose lines. One stands with her arms raised, another balances on one leg, a third crouches with hands on knees, and the last sits with her head in her hands. The drawing is mostly in black and white, with some light shading. The figures look like they’re in motion, but the lines are rough and uneven. It feels like the artist was working fast, maybe just practicing shapes. If you like this sketchy style, look up *chiaroscuro*.
