Anthropomorphic Portrait Sketch by Tuller (2018)

This is an original pencil or graphite sketch on paper, featuring a stylized portrait with anthropomorphic or chimeric qualities. The subject is a humanoid head with distinct porcine features, most notably an upturned snout with prominent nostrils and pointed, animalistic ears. The hair is pulled back, with several wisps or locks cascading down the left side of the neck. The eyes are almond-shaped with minimal iris detail, contributing to an otherworldly expression. The artwork displays a range of tonal values achieved through cross-hatching and graphite blending, creating soft shadows across the cheeks and neck. The background is moderately shaded with diagonal pencil strokes, providing contrast to the central figure. In the lower right margin, the piece is signed and dated by the artist with the inscription 'TULLER 11/18' accompanied by a small checkmark. The paper appears to be standard drawing weight, showing minor smudging and textural irregularities consistent with hand-drawn graphite work. There are visible graphite fingerprints and charcoal-like dust near the bottom edges of the sheet, indicating a raw, unfinished studio quality. The overall composition is centered and takes up most of the vertical space of the paper.
