About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long, brown coat with a hood pulled up. She’s holding something small in one hand, maybe a pair of gloves or a folded cloth. The coat has a simple, loose fit, and the lines are quick and confident, almost like a quick sketch. The artist signed it “Pommes de Pin,” which just means “pine cones” in French—maybe a nod to the texture or shape of the coat. The drawing feels fresh and modern, even though it’s just ink on paper. If you like this style, look up Carven—the artist behind this sketch.

Carven

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