This sketch shows a rocky shore with a small building on a cliff. The water is calm, and the sky is mostly gray with a few lighter spots. The colors are mostly muted—browns, grays, and soft blues—with some white highlights on the waves. The building looks like it might be a lighthouse or a small house, but it’s not clear. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, giving it a rough, unfinished feel. If you like this style, look up *chiaroscuro* to see how artists use light and shadow.
