About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a sleek black outfit. She wears a short jacket with three buttons, a matching skirt, and a small hat. Her pose is confident, with one hand resting on her hip. To the right, there’s a simple line drawing of the jacket’s back view. The handwritten label says *"Sombrero"*—Spanish for hat—though the woman’s headwear looks more like a small cap. The sketch is loose and quick, with bold lines and minimal shading. Next, check out Carven, the artist behind this drawing.
