i see a man with very big eyes and a almost wooden-like nosedrawn with ark colours and bold lines
the background is one solid colour
i think he is staring blankly and expressionlessly
i think he is trying to express that life is very black
the artist emphasised simple and bold lines used to draw the potrait
i wonder why he is drawn so minimalistically and without expression
why did he use only 1 colour for the background
i would like to keep the bold lines and add more vivid colours in the background the show contast from his blank expression
