A clean line manga illustration of a teenage boy sitting cross legged reading a book, wearing an oversized jumper and trainers. Precise ink line that swells and tapers, hair drawn as grouped strokes with solid black shapes, decided clothing folds, value supplied by dotted screentone rather than shading. Large areas left plain white, minimal background, one flat colour accent on the jumper. Confident and economical.
