A graphite drawing on a vertical yellowed page features frenzied hatching shading a parrot's beak. Thick strokes outline the head in contrast with smoother, lighter body shading. Scribbly loops and zigzags overlay the features. Studies splay out from a central figure, with splotches of dense graphite thinning to grayed remnants. Loose, gestural strokes extend beyond defined features, creating a composition where distinct parrot profiles occupy the page with frantic energy.
