About this work

This is a simple line drawing of a person from behind. They’re wearing a long coat with a fur collar and a hat, and their arms are raised behind their head. The drawing is mostly in brown tones, with quick, sketchy strokes. The title *Buffalo* might hint at something unexpected—this person looks more like a stylish figure than an animal. The artist’s name is Carven, but their style here is loose and fast, almost like a quick sketch. Look up Carven to see more of their work.

Carven

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