About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, light-blue dress with white polka dots and a fitted waist. Her skirt flares slightly, and she’s walking with one hand on her hip. Next to her is a smaller drawing of a man in a simple coat and pants. The lines are quick and confident, with watercolor-like shading. The name "Lodi" is scrawled in the corner—maybe a design code or the model’s name. The artist’s loose style focuses on shape and movement over detail. Check out Carven next—they designed clothes like these in the mid-1900s.

Carven

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