About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long, brown coat tied at the waist with a belt. The coat has a wide collar and flared skirt, and she’s wearing a hat and low-heeled shoes. The lines are loose and quick, with some shading to show folds in the fabric. The artist signed it "Pullman" in the top-right corner, but the drawing is actually by someone named Carven. The style feels simple but confident, like a quick study for a fashion design. If you like this sketch, look up Carven for more of their work.

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