About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, plaid jacket and matching pants. Her arms are outstretched, and she’s wearing low-heeled shoes. The drawing is simple, with quick lines and light shading. The name "Maki" is written in the corner, and the artist signed it "Carven." The clothes look like something from the mid-20th century. If you like this style, check out Carven for more fashion-inspired art.
