About this work

This is a simple, clean drawing of a woman in a fitted suit. She’s wearing a dark jacket with two buttons and a bow at the neck, paired with a matching skirt. Her hat is green and sits snugly on her head, and she’s got on pointed shoes. The sketch looks like it was done quickly, with loose lines and flat colors. The focus is on the outfit, not the face or background. If you like this style, check out more Carven.

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