About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a simple, dark outfit. She’s wearing a short jacket with a row of buttons down the front and a long skirt that flares slightly at the bottom. Her hair is pulled back under a small hat, and one hand rests on her hip. The title *Oasis* is written in the top-right corner, but it’s not clear what it refers to. The sketch looks like a quick study of a fashion design, focusing on clean lines and dark colors. Check out Carven for more work by this artist.

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