About this work

This drawing shows a pixelated-style face with a red collar and dark jacket. The colors are blocky—bright reds, blues, and greens—like a rough digital image. The paper has grid lines, and the edges look uneven, almost hand-cut. The artist scribbled notes in German around the border, including *"mit buntem Buntstift"* (with colored pencils). The face has a neutral expression, but the colors pop against the plain background. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching next—it’s a drawing technique that uses layers of lines.
