About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with black floral patterns on a light background. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s holding a wide-brimmed hat with one hand while her other arm rests behind her head. The dress has a fitted waist and flares out at the bottom, giving it a graceful, swinging look. The sketch uses simple lines and soft shading to show the fabric’s movement. The artist focused on the dress’s shape and pattern rather than details like facial features or background. Next, check out Carven to see more of this artist’s work.
