About this work

This sketch shows a tall, loose figure with a flowing headscarf. The body is made of bold, wavy lines in blue, green, and black. At the bottom, three white flowers with black centers sit against a pale background. The handwriting on the paper says "Colombie," which might be the title. The lines are quick and uneven, like a rough draft. 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.
