About this work

This sketch shows a woman walking away from us. She’s wearing a long, checkered coat with a dark collar and buttons down the front. Her shoes are simple and low, and her hair is pulled back neatly. The word "Monaco" is written in the corner—maybe it’s the name of the drawing or a place. The lines are quick and loose, like a fashion sketch. If you like this style, check out Carven for more work like this.

Carven

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