drawings?
This type of drawing falls under expressive line work, where bold, gestural strokes create emotion and movement rather than focusing on fine details or realism. Often executed with ink, charcoal, or diluted paint, these works rely on high contrast, negative space, and spontaneous mark-making to convey depth and feeling.
Unlike traditional detailed rendering, expressive line drawings embrace imperfection, distortion, and abstraction, often emphasizing psychological depth over anatomical accuracy. The loose, raw strokes suggest a sense of urgency, making the viewer feel the emotion behind the piece. This technique is frequently used in figure studies, portraits, and conceptual artwork, where the goal is to capture the essence and energy of the subject rather than a literal representation
