A small-scale pastel and crayon sketch by Irena Klonek, where an abstract composition unfolds on an old book page. The presence of gothic letters from the book adds a layer of history and intrigue to the artwork.

The sketch is set against a background painted in solid white, providing a clean and crisp canvas. On top of this, Irena Klonek has applied a beautifully executed hachure of brown, pink, red, and orange. These hachures are strategically placed, and their combination creates new and captivating hues, showcasing the artist's skill in blending colors and creating visual interest.

The bottom portions of the composition is mostly white and plain, allowing for a sense of balance and simplicity. This reserved use of color enhances the areas with hachures, drawing the viewer's attention to the dynamic interplay of browns, pinks, reds, and oranges.

The pastel and crayon medium adds a soft and expressive quality to the sketch, allowing for intricate detailing and a nuanced application of color. The abstract nature of the composition invites viewers to interpret and appreciate the artwork in their own unique ways.

Overall, Irena Klonek's small-scale sketch is a delightful blend of art and history. The combination of the gothic letters, the carefully chosen color palette, and the artist's technique create a visually engaging and layered piece of artwork.

The sketch is stuck onto a thicker piece of paper for stability, we can see the left side has been ripped from a notebook. There is a number written on the top with blue ink.
