About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing green dress with a draped top. Her pose is relaxed, one hand resting on her hip, the other holding the skirt. The lines are loose but confident, with quick strokes for the arms and legs. The name "Créole" is written in the top corner, hinting at a cultural or stylistic reference. The drawing feels like a quick study, maybe for a fashion design. Next, check out Carven to see more of their work.
