About this work

This drawing shows a detailed view of the nerves and other tissue in the neck and/or head. The artist has used a range of lines and shading to create a sense of depth and texture. The drawing is very detailed, with many different parts of the neck and head shown. The artist has used a technique called cross-hatching to create shading and texture. This technique involves layering many thin lines at different angles to create a range of tones and textures. If you're interested in learning more about this technique, you could look up cross-hatching.
