X-line. The style is nothing more than a series of criss-crosses.
Yman is just famous for it. But don't start criss-crossing so fast...see the next
piece from the collection.

X-line 2. Here Yman graphically displays the undertones of the X style.
This drawing's layout is X'ed.

Again, fashion is a common thread throughout his collections.
One might think this belongs in the 'Girls and Women' collection. Not.
This is the peak of the X-line style. One can readily see the architect in
Yman's hand.

X-house. Cut the horizon hard right, erase those ovals and it's a masterpiece!

X-Line 3. Smooth as silk, scratchy as sand paper.

Michele This will reappear in 'Girls & Women.' Still it is good
X-line, if not very good X-line.

Smooth The title says it all.

Hat. The chin and neck ruin the X-line so this drawing would be a failure.
Still, it holds the viewer's attention while it upsets the eye.

X-line 4. As the beauty of Yman's art lies in its spontenaiety, so is its downfall.
This work done in his studio would shine. Here we understand what Yman wanted to say,
but never took the time to say it clearly.
