About this work

This drawing shows simple lines and shapes in pencil on paper. It's interesting because the artist used cursive-style lines to create the drawing. The lines are loose and expressive, giving the drawing a personal feel. The fact that it's part of a series of drawings done over a month adds to its simplicity and charm. You can see more simple and expressive drawings by looking into the technique of cross-hatching.
