About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, light-colored outfit. She’s wearing a wide-brimmed hat, a short jacket with three buttons, and a long skirt. Her arms are outstretched, and she’s standing on one leg, giving a sense of movement. The drawing is loose and quick, with flat colors and clean lines. The name *Mimosa* is written in the corner—maybe the outfit’s name or the model’s. If you like this style, check out Carven, the artist who made it.

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