This sketch shows rough, jagged shapes that look like stacked rocks or broken stone. The lines are dark and uneven, with some areas filled in with tight, crisscrossed strokes. The whole thing feels loose and quick, like it was drawn fast. The artist used a lot of shading to make the forms pop out from the paper. The darkest spots are where the lines overlap the most. Next, check out cross-hatching to see how this technique works.
