About this work

This sketch shows a few loose, dark lines on a light background. There’s a small, hunched figure near the top right, like a person curled up. Below it, two wavy shapes look like fish or maybe abstract marks. A thin, uneven line runs across the middle, like a horizon or a fence. The artist used a mix of fine lines and rough textures, almost like scribbles. The paper has a grainy look, too—maybe from the printing process. Check out how this was made with etching.
