About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, dark suit with a patterned jacket and matching pants. She stands with one hand on her hip and the other holding a bright red object to her face. The lines are simple but confident, with quick strokes for the hair and shoes. The red accents—her lips, the object, and a belt—stand out against the muted tones. The drawing looks like it was made fast, almost like a quick fashion note. Want to see more? Check out Carven, the artist behind this sketch.
