About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, sleeveless dress with a dark belt. Her skirt has vertical lines that make it look like it’s flowing. One hand rests on her hip, and she’s wearing low-heeled shoes. The artist used quick, sketchy lines to show fabric folds and movement. The name "Erable" is written in the corner, but we don’t know what it means yet. Look up Carven next to see more of their work.

Carven

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