About this work

The image depicts a drawing of a woman in a white and green swimsuit, with her left arm bent at the elbow and her right arm extended downward. The woman has dark hair and is facing forward, with her body turned slightly to the right. The drawing is rendered in a loose, expressive style, with bold lines and minimal shading. The background of the drawing is a light beige color, which provides a subtle contrast to the woman's figure. This drawing is reminiscent of the work of artist Carven.

Carven

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