About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, knee-length dress with short sleeves and a few buttons down the front. The fabric looks smooth and slightly shiny, with a flared skirt that hits just above her ankles. Her hair is short and neat, and she stands with one foot slightly ahead of the other. The drawing includes a small side view of the dress, showing how it fits at the back. The lines are clean and confident, with no extra shading—just flat colors and simple outlines.

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