Sharp Youth

Black Ink Youth Portrait Drawing – “Sharp Youth”

“Sharp Youth” is an original black ink youth portrait drawing for sale by contemporary Italian artist Dario Moschetta. Drawn on 240gsm paper, A4 size, this work portrays a young face with direct intensity and remarkable technical precision.

The artist’s cross-hatching technique builds structure and emotion through layers of black ink lines, revealing both fragility and strength. The subtle play of light on the face, combined with Moschetta’s confident linear rhythm, gives the portrait an almost sculptural presence. A minimalist yet powerful statement of character and form.

This one-of-a-kind drawing is signed on the back and ships flat in a rigid protective package. Ideal for collectors who appreciate expressive contemporary portraiture executed with traditional skill and control.
