About this work

This sketch shows a woman from behind, wearing a long, flowing dress with a wide skirt. Her back is turned, one arm raised slightly, and her hair is pulled back. The dress has a simple top with a bow at the waist and a patterned trim near the hem. The loose, quick lines suggest this was drawn fast—maybe for fashion. The artist focused on shapes and movement, not details. Look up Carven next to see more of their work.

Carven

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