About this work

This sketch shows a simple line drawing of a woman in a loose, knee-length dress. The fabric has a soft peach-and-white floral pattern, and the dress has a belt at the waist. Her hair is pulled back, and she stands with one hand resting lightly on her hip. The drawing is loose and quick, almost like a quick note to remember the outfit. The name "Bisque" is written in the corner, which might be a code or title. Check out Carven to see more of this artist’s work.

Carven

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