About this work

This drawing depicts a woman in a dark blue dress with a white lace collar and puffy sleeves. The dress is knee-length and has a V-neckline. The woman is wearing white gloves and heels. Her hair is styled in a bob with bangs. To the right of the woman, there is a small sketch of the back of the dress. The drawing is done in a simple yet elegant style, with clean lines and minimal details. The use of dark blue and white creates a striking contrast that draws the viewer's attention.
