About this work
The artist used a ballpoint pen to create every detail, making the lines look almost textured.
This drawing shows two dark, rounded shapes stacked unevenly on a light background. The top shape is rough and uneven, almost like a lump of coal. The bottom one is smoother but still grainy, with a slight shadow where they touch. There’s no color—just black and white.
