Study for Sorcerer
1957

A charcoal sketch on paper depicting an abstract, tower-like structure with multiple levels of swirling, ribbon-like platforms. At the top sits a small, house-like form with a pointed roof. The drawing is expressive with dynamic lines and shading, suggesting movement and depth. The artist's signature and date are visible at the bottom left corner.
