About this work

This sketch shows a tall, thin figure with one arm raised, holding a small object like a magnifying glass. The figure is dressed in a short black skirt and a white top, with long legs and bare feet. Next to them, a folded green jacket lies on the ground. The title, *"Bee-Boy"*, is written in the corner, hinting at a playful or unexpected theme. The loose, quick lines make the drawing feel lively and unfinished. Next, look up Carven to see more of their bold, stylized work.
