A black and white abstract drawing featuring a chaotic arrangement of lines and shapes with some recognizable elements such as windows and the word "STORM" amidst the swirls.

This is an abstract black and white drawing featuring geometric and organic shapes intermingled to create a composition that lacks a clear representation of real-world objects. The artwork includes a variety of forms such as circles, triangles, and arrows, with some areas filled in with solid black, hatching, or cross-hatching to create texture and contrast. The drawing is signed and dated at the bottom right corner with the text "A. Swinden '87."
