This drawing is almost all white space. In the center sits a faint, gray shape—just lines and dots—forming a rough triangle. The lines are light but clear, like a sketch that’s barely there. The artist used tiny dots packed together to fill in the shape. It’s simple but feels precise, like a puzzle made of pencil marks. Check out stippling to see how artists build shadows with dots.
