About this work

This sketch shows a person standing with hands on hips, wearing a loose white shirt, brown trousers, and chunky shoes. The trousers have a white fur trim at the bottom of the legs. The drawing is simple, with quick lines and light shading. The fur trim at the ankles is the only detail that stands out—it’s a small but bold touch. This drawing looks like it was made to show off clothing, not a person. Next, look up *breech, trouser* to see how pants with fur trim were styled in the past.

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