About this work

The image depicts a sketch of a woman wearing a dress, with her left hand on her hip and her right arm extended to the side. The dress features a high neckline and a full skirt, with a pattern of zigzags and dots along the edges. The woman's face is not visible, and her body is rendered in a simple, elegant line. The background of the sketch is a plain beige color, which provides a subtle contrast to the intricate details of the dress. This sketch is reminiscent of the work of Carven, an artist known for their elegant and refined drawings.

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