About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a simple, dark outfit. She’s wearing a short jacket with three buttons and a matching knee-length skirt. Her hair is neatly pulled back, and she holds a small bag in one hand. The sketch is loose and quick, almost like a fashion sketch. The lines are bold, and the colors are flat—just navy blue and a light background. If you like this style, check out Carven for more work like this.

Carven

These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
