About this work

This drawing shows a woman from behind, walking with one hand raised. She wears a sleeveless dress with a dark, dotted pattern and a high neckline. The skirt is long and loose, and she has on dark shoes. The artist’s loose, sketchy lines focus on the dress’s shape and movement. The name *Aspic* is written in the corner—maybe the dress’s style or the artist’s note. Next, check out Carven for more fashion-inspired art.

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