In this drawing of a crater on the moon I choose a night time monochrome, imagining the massive hole as a foreboding booby trap. Astronomically speaking we only see one side of the moon’s surface, it’s always the same side illuminated by the sun. Postulating the dark side of the moon in this drawing gives reverie to the hovering gray orb.
