About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long, striped dress with a fitted jacket. Her skirt flares out slightly, and she’s holding something small in one hand. The lines are loose but confident, with quick strokes for the fabric folds and a simple hat on her head. The drawing is labeled *Dany* in the corner, and the artist used light pencil shading to show texture. The stripes on the dress are drawn with quick, parallel lines.

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