Like this image? I can make something like this for you.

Subject

A seated figure in a broad hat, drawn in dense pen hatching over a washed ground, with a second study faintly behind.

Composition

Upright and centred, the figure cropped at the knee. The hatching builds the darks and the washed ground sits behind it as a flat tone rather than a setting.

Palette

Umber, olive and dusty rose in the wash, with the drawing in a dense blue-black. The paper is left as the lights throughout.

Handling

Short parallel pen strokes build every dark mass, laid over a wash that was put down first and allowed to dry. The drawing does the work; the colour sits beneath it.

Medium and support

Pen and ink over watercolour on sketchbook paper.

Signature

No signature visible within the drawn area.
