This graphite drawing captures the sculptural rhythm of Crassula rupestris, a compact succulent known for its stacked, angular leaves and architectural form. The fleshy, triangular leaves are meticulously shaded to convey depth and volume, arranged in opposing pairs that spiral gracefully along the stem. With subtle tonal gradations and careful line work, the drawing emphasizes the plant’s balance between symmetry and organic growth. A quiet study in form and texture, where the resilience of desert life is translated through the softness of graphite.
