About this work

This is a simple line drawing of a woman in a bright red outfit. She’s wearing a matching jacket and skirt with big pockets, her hands resting on her hips. The belt is thick and sits low on her waist, and she’s got small earrings and a neat haircut. The word *Renoncule* is written at the top—maybe that’s the outfit’s name. The drawing looks like it was made quickly, with loose strokes and no background. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching next.

Carven

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