About this work

This drawing shows a boxy frame with small circles and swirls around the edges. Inside, there’s a woman sitting on a cloud, holding a scroll. Below her, a man lies on the ground with his arms crossed. The lines are all drawn with tiny dots and lines packed close together. The woman’s scroll looks like it has writing on it, maybe a list or rules. The man on the ground seems tired or defeated. The whole thing feels like a story told in symbols, not just pictures. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching next.
