About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a long, flowing dress. The bodice is fitted with a V-neck and short sleeves, while the skirt is full and layered, decorated with green and purple swirls. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she stands with one hand resting on her hip. The sketch is loose and quick, with visible pencil strokes that give it a sketchy, almost unfinished look. The name "Bergeronnette" is written at the top, and the number "13H" appears in the corner. If you like this style, look up cross-hatching next.

Carven

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