This piece shows two framed images side by side. On the left is a sketchy drawing of a person riding a horse, holding a bow and arrow. The lines are loose and rough, like a quick study. On the right is a photo of a rocky cliff with a thin stream of water running down it. The sketch looks like it was copied from an old magazine illustration—maybe a hunting scene or a Western story. The artist framed it with the photo, making them feel like they belong together. Next, check out cross-hatching to see how artists build shading with lines.
