About this work

This sketch shows a face wearing big sunglasses and a knit cap. The lines are simple, almost sketchy, with light shading around the eyes and jaw. The paper has a faint grid of tiny marks under the skin tones. The artist used colored pencil instead of paint, which makes the lines soft but still sharp. The sunglasses hide the eyes completely, giving the face a mysterious look. Want to see more? Check out Rosemarie Trockel.
