This sketch shows a tangle of bare trees and brush in a forest. The lines are rough and uneven, like quick pencil strokes. Shadows and light mix in a soft way, making some spots darker than others. The artist dated it 1920 in the corner, but the style feels loose and fast. It’s all drawn in graphite, with no color. Want to see more work like this?
