A single supply boat noses into rough chop, climbing a heavy swell in the lower half of the frame while a pale sky opens upward through the tall vertical composition. Rich charcoal and graphite shading builds deep tonal contrast, and confident strokes throw spray off the bow. Essentially monochrome, the drawing leans on light, shadow and line to capture the weight of the sea and the small, determined craft working through it.
