This looks like a rough sketch on old, torn paper. The lines are dark and uneven, almost like scribbles. There’s a simple shape—maybe a chair or a bench—with two small circles that could be legs or wheels. The paper itself is faded and crinkled, with bits missing around the edges. The artist used just pencil on whatever paper they found. That’s it—no fancy tools, no smooth surface. The lines feel hurried, like they were drawn fast. If you like this kind of raw, simple drawing, check out cross-hatching.
