About this work

You see jagged black ink lines on white paper—words and a face tangled together. The words read, *"I'm longing for..."* but the sentence cuts off. Pettibon’s work often mixes punk energy with old comic-book styles. This piece feels raw, like a thought half-finished. The face looks almost erased, as if the emotion behind it is too messy to pin down. If you like this, try looking up cross-hatching—the way ink lines build up tone and texture.
