About this work

This is a simple line drawing of a woman in a purple outfit. She’s wearing a short jacket with a bow at the waist and a matching skirt, both dotted with small shapes. One arm is bent at the elbow, and she’s standing on one leg with the other slightly lifted. The drawing includes a smaller sketch of the same outfit from the back. The artist’s name, *Carven*, is written in the corner, along with the number 44. Look up Carven to see more of their fashion-focused artwork.

Carven

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