About this work

This sketch shows a simple outline of a person standing sideways. The figure wears a light blue swimsuit bottom with a dark line around the waist. The rest of the body is drawn in faint pencil lines, almost like a quick sketch. The drawing feels loose and fast, like it was done in one go. The artist’s name, *Marie-Louise Carven*, is signed in the corner. Next, look up Marie-Louise Carven.
