About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a sleek black dress and matching jacket, holding a small rectangular object in her right hand. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she wears a simple pearl necklace. To the right, there’s a quick sketch of the dress’s back view, showing buttons or stitching details. The drawing uses loose, quick lines with some shading to suggest fabric and light. The focus is on the dress’s clean, modern shape. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists build shading with lines.
