About this work

The image depicts a drawing of a woman wearing a multicolored swimsuit. The woman is shown from the waist up, with her arms at her sides and her head turned slightly to the right. She has a slender build and a confident expression. The swimsuit is a deep blue color with a floral pattern featuring yellow, pink, and white flowers. To the right of the woman, there is a small sketch of a person's head and shoulders. The background of the drawing is a light beige color, which provides a subtle contrast to the vibrant colors of the swimsuit. This drawing is reminiscent of the work of artist Carven.
