This piece shows clean, flat lines of charcoal and ink on paper. The lines are uneven but stacked like horizontal bands, some thicker, some fading into light gray. A few diagonal marks cut across the bands, breaking the pattern. The artist used simple tools—just charcoal and ink—to create this. The lines feel deliberate but also a little rough, like hand-drawn sketches left unfinished. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching next.
