About this work

This sketch shows a dancer mid-movement, one arm raised, the other holding a fan. Her dress is loose and flowing, with quick, sketchy lines around her. The background is just a few faint strokes—no real detail, just a hint of a stage. The artist used loose, fast strokes to capture motion, almost like scribbles. It’s not polished—just raw energy on the page. If you like this style, check out Impressionism for more sketches like this.
