About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a dark blue outfit. She’s wearing a long-sleeve top with a belt, matching pants, and pointed shoes. Her right hand rests on her head, and her left hand holds a small bag. The drawing is loose and quick, with simple lines and flat colors. The artist focused on the shape of the clothes, not details. Look up Carven next to see more of their fashion-inspired art.
