This sketch shows a person playing a violin, their face turned slightly away. The lines are soft and smudged, like quick pencil strokes. The musician’s hair is loose, and one hand grips the instrument while the other rests on the neck. The artist used shading to give shape to the figure, focusing on the face and hands. The background is barely there, letting the musician stand out. Try looking up *chiaroscuro* next—it’s the technique of strong light and dark contrasts.
