Digging Kids
1982

A monochromatic artwork depicting three nude figures in various poses on a platform, rendered in expressive, fluid lines that suggest movement and form. The image has a raw, sketch-like quality, with the figures' muscles and contours emphasized by the use of light and shadow. The artwork is bordered by a wide margin, and there is a signature at the bottom right corner.
