DescriptionThis drawing is a view, from the shoulders up, of someone playing a game with strings. He is wearing a blue shirt, a twisted bracelet on his right hand, and a ring. The string is pulled in many directions in his hands, which are held in front of his face. His face is partially obscured by a facemask underneath a large, translucent, yellow dog cone that covers most of his head. He is facing the viewer’s right, his face turned towards his hands though his eyes are closed. There is a pink, cartoon bat floating above him in the upper right corner along with many purple spores.
