This sketch shows an older man in a dark cap, turned slightly away. His face is wrinkled, and he wears glasses. The watercolor is loose and quick—blurred edges, soft shadows, and a mix of browns, blues, and pale skin tones. The artist left some areas unfinished, like the wall behind him, which looks like a quick wash of color. The style feels more about mood than detail, with light playing across his face. Next, check out Williams, Benjamin to see more of his work.
