About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple black dress with a fitted bodice and a flared skirt. The dress has a square neckline and small floral embroidery near the waist. Her hair is pulled back, and she stands with one hand resting on her hip. The drawing is loose and quick, with rough strokes that focus on shapes over details. The name "Malaga" is written in the corner, but we don’t know why. Check out the artist Carven to see more of their work.

Carven

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