About this work

This sketch shows three simple figures in clean lines. The first is a woman in a sleek black dress with a fitted waist and flared skirt, standing confidently. Next to her is a flat drawing of the same dress, folded at the waist. The third figure is a man in a light jacket, tie, and dark pants. The handwriting in the corner reads "Salomanque," which might be a typo or early draft. The loose, quick lines suggest the artist was focused on shapes and movement over detail.

Carven

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