About this work

The image presents a sketch of a hand holding a rectangular shape, with the hand's fingers curled around it. The hand is drawn in red and yellow crayon, while the rectangular shape is outlined in red. The background of the image features a mix of yellow and red crayon marks. The sketch appears to be a study for a silkscreen print, with the artist experimenting with different colors and techniques. The use of crayon adds a sense of texture and depth to the image. This sketch is reminiscent of the work of Richard Smith, a British artist known for his innovative use of color and technique.
