About this work

This sketch shows a side view of a head and neck, drawn in loose, quick pencil lines. The face is simple—just a few strokes for the eyes, nose, and mouth—while the hair is a wavy mass at the top. The collar of a shirt is dark and sharp, cutting across the neck. The artist signed it in the corners, one with a date: 1955. The lines are uneven, almost like scribbles, but still feel intentional. If you like this sketchy style, look up cross-hatching next.
