About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing dress with a fitted bodice. The dress has a dark, patterned fabric with a mix of shapes and lines, and the bodice is strapless with a slight ruffle detail. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s standing with one leg slightly forward. The drawing uses quick, loose lines to capture movement and shape. The patterns on the dress look hand-drawn, almost like a quick fashion sketch. Next, look up *Carven* to see more of their work.

Carven

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