About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, flowing dress. Her arms are raised slightly, and the dress has a loose fit with a slight flare at the bottom. The lines are quick and confident, with some shading to show folds in the fabric. The name "Boréal" is written in the top right corner, which might be a model or a design code. The drawing feels like a quick study, possibly for fashion. Check out Carven to see more of their work.

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