About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, loose dress with a deep V-neck and short sleeves. The dress has a brown base with scattered dark spots and a narrow belt at the waist. She wears a wide-brimmed hat and stands with one hand on her hip, looking confident. The drawing is quick and loose, with bold lines and minimal shading. The focus is on the dress’s shape and pattern rather than detail. Want to see more by the artist who made this? Check out Carven.
