About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, loose outfit. She’s wearing a short jacket with a checkered pattern and a matching flared skirt. Her hair is pulled back under a hat, and she’s holding her left arm out slightly, like she’s mid-step. The drawing uses quick, sketchy lines to show fabric folds and movement. The checkered pattern is drawn with light, crisscrossed strokes. Look up cross-hatching next to see how artists build texture with lines.
