About this work

This is a simple black-and-white drawing of a woman in a long, sleeveless dress. The dress has a row of buttons down the front and a high collar. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she’s walking with one hand resting lightly on her hip. The drawing looks like it was done quickly, with loose lines and minimal shading. The artist focused on the shape of the dress and the woman’s pose. Check out Carven for more sketches like this one.

Carven

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