A boy in a blue sweater and yellow pants stands in a grassy field, holding a long stick with a red ball at the end. Trees and bushes surround him, and the ground has a few rocks. His hair is short and light-colored, and he’s looking up, maybe aiming at something. This is a simple scene, but the artist used a special printing method to keep the lines loose and the colors soft. The red ball stands out against the green and gray tones. Want to know more? Look up etching to see how artists like this create prints.
