About this work

This drawing shows a simple figure in a bright green swimsuit with a yellow square on the chest. The lines are loose and quick, like a sketch. The background is plain white, so the colors stand out. The swimsuit’s design looks modern and clean, with no extra details. The artist signed it "Carthage" in the corner. Check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her work.
