About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple pose, wearing a dark blue dress with big pockets. Her skirt is loose and hits just above her ankles, and she’s holding the front of it with one hand. A matching dark blue top has a striped scarf tucked into the neckline, and she’s wearing low-heeled shoes. The pockets on the skirt are a standout detail—big enough to hold something, maybe even the scarf. The drawing is clean and quick, focusing on shapes and fabric folds.
