About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, sleeveless dress with a floral pattern on the chest. Her hair is pulled back, and she has a small flower tucked behind her ear. The lines are simple and quick, with light shading to show her pose. The name "Juanita" is written in the corner, and the drawing feels like a quick study. The small sketch in the bottom right corner looks like another version of the same dress. Check out Marie-Louise Carven for more of her work.
