About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a sleek black dress with short sleeves and a high neckline. She’s holding what looks like a small purse in one hand and has a pearl necklace on. The dress has a simple A-line shape with two buttons near the hem, and she’s wearing black high heels. To the right, there’s a quick sketch of the dress from the back. The artist signed it "Leki" in the corner, but the year isn’t clear. The style looks polished and modern, like something from a fashion sketchbook.

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