Study for Fastest Draw
c. 1963

A sketch on a piece of paper with rough edges, featuring abstract shapes and lines that create a dynamic composition. The words "Study for 'Faited Bave'" are written at the top, suggesting this is a preparatory work for another piece. The artist's initials are in the lower right corner. The drawing is executed in a loose, expressive style with dark lines and shading.
