Vertically oriented red chalk on off-white paper depicts organic figures in an artist's studio. A man with a mustache in a suit jacket faces forward, his left hand resting on a board. Behind him, a woman leans in. Sketchy lines define the forms, with light horizontal hatching across the background. To the right, a canvas rests on an easel. Delicate handwritten text is centered below the figures.
